Greetings to the new students in my class for 2010-11.  I'm looking forward to meeting and getting to know all of you during this first week.  We will jump right in to the school year with some ice breaker activities and some Math and Language reviews.  As the first week goes by we will be preparing for the first Math unit in Patterning and the first Language activities with News Journals and a novel study.  Also upcoming are our preparations for our Stratford visit (date TBA) including actor workshops right in our classroom.  It should be fun!  See you soon!


This blog will function as a weekly homework listing and be archived as the week ends.  Be sure to check out my class web page at http://areynolds.org/ all year long.  Plenty of useful stuff is posted, including downloads of class handouts which you should use to replace lost work.
