I actually thought I did, but apparently, I didn't.<br />The good news is the students did well on their spelling tests without it. Mrs. Randolph enjoyed being with the class, she had very complimentary things to say. I knew they were great kids, but it is always nice to hear it from someone else. <br />The story for the week is "Rocks in His Head". All the words contain prefixes. The words are:<br />prepaid, midnight, overflow, outdoors, outline, overgrown, prefix, Midwest, pretest, midpoint, outgoing, overtime, overdue, outside, outfield, precaution, prediction, midsection, overweight, and prehistoric.<br />Thank you all for you kind email about Mitch and his surgery. He is doing well and well on the road to recovery. Which is good news for me. I am glad to be a teacher, I would make a terrible nurse.Kareyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14234549987263805761noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9085349378268554533.post-90218726746575397582010-01-11T12:31:00.000-08:002010-01-11T12:37:22.707-08:00It seems we may actually thaw out.
