Please remember that your pledge donations are due on Friday May 24th. Some students have chosen to create a webspace through the Jump Rope for Heart Website to keep track of their donations. You can do this by clicking on JRFH and then select "Fundraising". Good luck and keep collecting those pledges.

What a Great Day!

Right in the middle of creating this big mess in math...

Then we went back to learning about area, length and measurement concepts.

We love these kind of days!
