9/4/12

Hello All,

I would like to start off by saying thank you for all of your patience. I have had some technical issues with my computer in class and because I have been at school so late the past week by the time I get home it is way past the time when homework is being done. Therefore, I did not update my blog like I would normally. I know that the issues are being worked on and I hope that this will not be a difficulty this week.
I would also like to thank you for your understanding during our transition time this week. Mrs. Apalategui is very excited about joining our Intermediate Team. Some of you may already be familiar with her as she was previously on the Elementary Team. I appreciate her willingness to help us out in our time of need. Having said that we will miss Mr. Potteiger!  
On a different note I am almost finished installing our new Mimio technology throughout the school.  Students in my class as well as during my enrichment time have already been able to use and play with our new toy as it is referred to in my room.
This week we are continuing to read The Great Gilly Hopkins.  We are starting to figure out why she acts the way that she does and see her develop as a person.  Grammar will be added in more frequently and we will have our first writing assignment at some point this week.
