Nineteenth Week of School

Three days ago it rained.
Two days ago the thermometer hit 45 degrees
One day ago the temperature dipped low.
Today we want snow!

18 popsicles
18 pairs of sneakers
18 brown, organic eggs
18 sapling pear trees
18 sails (for sail boats)  and
18 top hats?

Sixteenth Week of School

This week has dawned with the unfortunate occurance of a deep-voiced teacher who can no longer sing with the sopranos, altos, or even tenors, for that matter.  She will have to be assigned to the basses.  But that does not mean, however, that you are exempt from posting your word before we scatter in two days for Christmas break.
