Activities for week two 2/7 - 2/11 - 2011

Jonas Salk said, "There are two lasting things we can give our children: One is roots, the other is wings." I hope from this class you have both. You are a part of El Dorado and also a part of me; I look forward to you doing many great thing, here and in the future. Let's take it to the next level. I will still be here every morning, break, and the beginning of lunch to help you with questions or problems you may have. Finally, do not forget the President Obama extra credit project with your parents is due Monday before class only.
