Activities for week thirteen 12/2 - 12/6 - 2013

We are finishing Tangerine in the next two weeks, and Robert Strauss stated, "Success is a little like wrestling a gorilla. You don't quit when you're tired - you quit when the gorilla is tired." For you this means you need to put two good weeks in on Tangerine if you want success in this unit. Also please check your S.S.Reading Points. Ms. Davilla is still here in the mornings or at break for help or questions.
