ALL CLASSES
Vocabulary Tests will be given on Tuesday in each of my classes. Students should have been studying the assigned words all week.
Mrs. Mitchell came to each class on Friday to discuss Self-esteem and showing Respect for others. Each student had a paper t-shirt with nice things written about themselves by their classmates. It was a really nice lesson. Thank you, Mrs. Mitchell.
