Happy Thanksgiving

I hope that everyone has a great week and a wonderful Thanksgiving.  If you are traveling, please be safe and get home in one piece.  If you are staying in town, have fun cooking and shopping!  May everyone enjoy some down time with friends and family.  Happy Thanksgiving!  I'll see everyone bright and early next Monday! 

Enjoy the turkey, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, marshmallow stuff, and all the other favorites you mentioned in class!

Election Day

Tomorrow is election day 2012!  I hope you have all early voted or have plans to vote tomorrow.  The students at Shayne participated in a school-wide election today.  Our class even took turns working the polls.  They did a great job.  I hope they tell you about it tonight.

I did want to share a resource that we used in class last week.  In order to track the electoral votes tomorrow night, students can check out the site http://www.270towin.com/ and fill in the map as states are called for one candidate or the other.  It is a cool site, and I hope you enjoy watching the returns.  When our class next meets, we'll know the results!

For those of you coming in for a conference tomorrow, I'll see you then!
