This week there is only one disruption but it is a biggie.  Students who did well at the zone track meet are now off to the district track meet on Wednesday.  We will have Ms. Lane's students coming into our classroom for the day.  Other then that we are trying to stick with a normal routine as there are still a number of topics to cover before the end of the year.  
In math we are working on geometry and for HACE we will be on to the last unit, puberty.  For LA we will finish up our novel and a quiz will be on Friday.  In Science we are doing our last unit which is called Simple Machines.  For PE we will be able to do some fun activities outside (weather permitting).

I sent home the permission slip for swimming lessons and I am still waiting for a few permission slips to return...also there will be another permission slip for the intermediate swim on June 17th.
