This is our last week of the quarter and we have all worked very hard, I hope you will all have a relaxing Spring Break! We have a busy week and I am looking forward to our class celebration on Friday. We will be watching Prince Caspian in class and enjoying some Prince Caspian themed food. Thank you to all who are working to make that celebration possible!
