Nearing The End

I started typing the weekly newsletter today and as I was entering important dates I listed the last day of school!  I can't believe we are already at this point in the year.  We also started our last social studies unit for the year, People At Work. (The class cheered.  Social studies is their least favorite compared with health and science.)  This is a fun unit though.  We get to talk about wants/needs, goods/services, consumers/produces.  I think the class will enjoy the unit once we get into it.  We will talk about jobs.  Our discussion today showed students are interested in everything from firefighters to veterinarians to Wal-Mart workers to a Samaria.  Career choices may change by the time we're finished with the unit!
