Too bad this was the first day we had like 25 percent of the class out!
The make ups for the standardized test are Thursday. We know Lauren will be out (hi, Lauren! How are you feeling??), but maybe the others will be back and able to participate.....I hope so.

It was raining really hard when I left school in the dark last night, and this morning, too...I didn't realize that NJ had as much of other hurricane-related effects until Kyle told us his dad was out all night dealing with the power outages around the state!

Ok, I just updated the Math-a-thon totals. As of today we have 25 envelopes returned for a total of $2153.55!

Time to get going.....See you tomorrow!

Oh, by the way, if you were wondering where you could find a nice list of word problem solving strategies with well explained examples, look no further! It's here....
