Wow! It is so wonderful to have you as a member of my class!  On this page, you will find important information about our class.  First, is a letter that I am sending home during the first week of school.  Included in this letter is some information for students and parents about our class.  Also, homework will be updated daily and posted on this page.  On occasion, I may not be able to update the homework assignment here, so be sure to copy it down during class. Please see me with any questions or concerns.  Thank you!
