Temporary Haitus of Blog

Salvete omnes,

I would like to see if the seventh graders can "swim" on their own and I will not be using the Blog for the next few weeks. I would like the seventh graders to become accustomed to taking the homework down in class from the board. If you are absent, then you should contact a reliable friend (don't have a reliable friend? Then find one!).

I know that this is an inconvenience, but at this stage I would like to help the seventh graders become more independent. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Magistra Enscoe
