Welcome back!

 As I mentioned before, on the 20th a group of middle school students and myself went to the Writers in the Middle conference at Graceland University in Lamoni. I think everyone enjoyed themselves and learned a little more about writing stories. Here are a couple of pictures of the kiddos.

Yesterday we participated in Back to the Future day. I snapped some pictures of the 8th grade helping the 2nd grade in the "future room". This room was filled with new technology such as robots. The middle school will be working more with these items in December for Code Day. 










A heads up: the 7th grade and 8th grade will be taking their unit 2 test on Monday. Then we will proceed with Halloween week. I LOVE this holiday so we will be doing various activities. It will be learning activities, don't worry, but it will also be FUN!! Also, the 27th of October is when ALL books reports are due. Friday the 30th is when we will be doing a pumpkin painting contest with middle school, Civics Club with be doing Halloween activities with the lower grades and the costume parade starts at 2:30. Parents are welcome to come to the parade.
