5th6th Grade Wiki

Thursday, June 30, 2011

It's the end of June

Greetings,

Be sure to check the school supply list and watch for those sales.  For fun websites to look at go to our 4th grade wiki page.  I have started saving some websites for you to help you get ready for school.  Parents, if you use twitter, please let me know and I can use that as another way to communicate with you. 

Thanks and enjoy the holiday weekend, 

Mrs. Halpern
