9 days in . . .
We are done our first full week! Our major units are into full swing, and summer seems but a speck in the rearview mirror (it's raining as I type this).

It was great to meet some of you at the "Parent Orientation Evening" (aka - Meet the Teacher). If you were not able to attend, you lost out on great door prizes, live music, and a chance to pet a real giraffe. (OK, none of those things are true, but we did laugh a little - mostly at Mr. Hanlon). Always know that you are welcome to call, e-mail, or come and visit the classroom.

I have been very impressed with this class. They are a kind, giving, and very neighbourly group of students, and I can tell that we're going to have a great year together.
