to fill the minds of students with facts…it is to teach
them to think.”

Tongue Twister Of The Week:

Every other Friday I will give you a tongue twister or poem to
use with your child or class. The  poem I choose is based on the
mini or maxi unit and integrates with the materials in the theme.

Patient Peter popped pink popcorn perfectly.
