I hope you had a great first day. If you missed it, we were given a seating chart, picture form, and reminded to bring our reading logs signed tomorrow along with a book we read this summer to write about in class tomorrow. We also went over class expectations and Mrs. Lilly gave us a little information about her and her family.
Reminders: you need a flashdrive and folder, and you need a book for SSR on Fridays.

This blog is designed for parents and students. Here I will blog daily assignments and upcoming tests, projects, activities, or random happenings during the school day. So students, if you missed a day, it would be awesome if you looked here first before coming to my desk. Also, if you are at home sick or missing for a sport or activity, you can look at it from home or your cell phone. Please don't hesitate to ask me in person; this is designed to assist you and your parents, but you are always welcome to ask me personally. This is my first attempt so bear with me as I attempt to add this additional way of communicating with students and parents.
