We
celebrated my Halloween birthday as a house. We went out to dinner to a
local Thai restaurant that I like alot. Then we rented a movie, because
there wasn't anything good playing at the theaters here. We watched
Mama Mia and thoroughly enjoyed it.
After I came back from New
York, I had an unexpected two days off! Hurricane Sandy did not hit us
as hard as she did other places, but we got the wind and rain. It was
nice to have the time off, but I was worried about
my family in New Jersey who were out power for almost a week. They have
it back now.
We ended the first marking
period with a puppet play about Charlotte's Web that went very well! I
was really encouraged to see my students work together to put on a fine
performance for the younger grades. They often
argue with each other and they put all that aside to cooperate. We also
finished our Social Studies project about the president of their choice.
We had a mock election in school that was very close; the kids got into
it.
