The last week of school is finally here! Now, if only the weather would catch up. It's hard to believe it's time for summer vacation.
My marching order for summer is to work on making our on-line curriculum user-friendly. I posted the draft version of the Science COC Cards for 3rd and 4th grades. They still need edited and formatted - which explains the draft watermark. :)
Feel free to call me at home if you have curriculum/assessment related questions this summer; my number is in the school's diretory.
Have a great summer!

Roman Numeral Song

The song "18 Wheels on a Big Rig" by Trout Fishing in America is my favorite way to teach Roman Numerals. It is definitely memorable and good for a laugh.
Here's a link to the song on YouTube. The embedding link was 'disabled by request.'
