Guys and Gals,

I apologize for my delayed responses to comments and lack of updates.  I feel like school has been crazy between all we have been doing with Egypt and Thanksgiving, and everything….ITS BEEN CRAZY!!

But regardless of how crazy it is I just want to let everyone know what fun I am having as a first year teacher in Geneseo!!  All my students are awesome no matter how many missing assignments they have…..

I was really proud of the Egypt test results and am very excited to get started with GREECE….

I am also very excited to get the classroom Topic Symbol Timeline updated…(about time Mr. Ferg…..)

Keep up all the great work and let’s hope for the best with this winter weather that is now upon us

Travel Safe!!!

I just wanna give props to all the students from the American League at GMS and from St. Malachy’s school for their work at Junior Achievement BizTown on Friday November 13th.

It may have been a suspicious Friday the 13th everywhere else but inside JA BizTown in Davenport, IA our students were doing an awesome job running their own businesses and making their own economy work like a well-oiled machine.

Here are some samples of students hard at work…

Hard at work crunching the numbers…

Reporters for the radio station getting the low down on    BizTown

The cafe, a very hot spot during our visit to BizTown

Another students hard at work making his business run smooth

It was a busy, high-tech day at the Print Shop      

To think there was so much going on, I even got interviewed by some members of the press!!!

Congratulations to all of the November All-Stars form both the American League and National Leage Houses in 6th grade at GMS!!!!!
