Hello students! On this site I have created an opportunity for you to view the expectations I have for you all in the classroom everyday. I have also given you different quotes to help inspire you. The books I have listed below are also perfect book report opportunity books! Just be sure to inform me so we do not have multiple reports on the same book. If you are ever confused about due dates, days we do not have school, meetings and events, I will have them all uploaded onto this calendar throughout the school year. If you have anything you would like to add please do not hesitate to let me know! As always if you need to contact me email or come see me. My contact box is on the About Me page.
