Mr. Appleby’s Class

We had a great first week of school.  The students participated well with each other.  There are no homework assignments over the weekend.  Please come in on Tuesday (9/8/09) ready for another great week.  We will have library at 9:00 AM on Tuesday, so think about what kind of book you want to read this week;-)

 

*If you haven’t turned in the forms I gave you from the first day of school, it is very important that you get them in next week.  

Have a safe weekend!

Mr. Appleby
