GOODBYE MISS DENNEN

We are sad that Tuesday is our last day having Miss Dennen as our student teacher.  Even though we will miss having her in our room every day, we know we will still see Miss Dennen because she will continue working at Ox Ridge as our school intern.  We will have a little party on Tuesday and present her with our “top secret” gifts and cards.  (Cards will be Monday night’s homework.)
