More Pictures!



I'm Back From Japan!


Hello 5th graders-

I just got home from Japan. The flight was 13 hours long! I had a wonderful time and can hardly wait to show you my pictures. I went into every bookstore I could find to buy some books for our classroom. I found a few that I will share with you next week. I did find a Harry Potter book translated in Japanese but this PAPERBACK book was 6,600 yen ($66.00)!!! Wow!! I'm sure you can understand why I didn't buy that one.

I hope you are having a good break. I miss all of you and look forward to seeing you next week.

Update


I sent an email to the technology department and they are getting your email addresses ready. Hopefully, we will be able to use them when we get back. Stay tuned!

Off to Japan!


I want to wish all of you a wonderful spring break!!! Our conferences are over and you all did a wonderful job leading a conference. I have my books and knitting packed, so I'm ready to take that 13+ hour flight to Tokyo. Hopefully, I will be able to update the blog while I'm there, but if I can't, I will by next Sunday. Don't forget to check it out. See you soon!
