This will be the last posting before spring break!

Please bring all your materials tomorrow including any graded Growing, Growing, Growing work.  In preparing for family conferences when we return, we will be organizing, cleaning, and transferring work to your multi-colored work sample folders.

Tomorrow we need to wrap-up today’s 1.2 work in FFPC.

Continue working on your project unless you have been extremely diligent and are ready to submit.

Enjoy your two weeks and have a safe journey!
