Good morning 7th graders,
Welcome to Wednesday – with your last roots quiz of the year! It’s interesting to note that, despite our strange circumstances, you have learned more roots than any other 7th grade class I have taught at St. John. Round of applause!
Today is Wednesday of Spirit Week – Get Out There and Bike Day! So, grab you bike (AND your helmet – because I love you too much to let you hurt your brains) and go for a spin😁.
You have four items for your Literature / ELA To Do list today:
