I wanted to let you know that I spoke with the students yesterday and explained I will be away from the classroom and out of the country from April 27th to May 5th.  Please know that I am away and will do my best to respond to emails in a timely manner.

Ms. Susan will be taking over the classroom in my absence along with two wonderful substitutes.  I have planned some wonderful lessons and activities in my absence.  Students will begin earning classroom money in preparation for our end of year “Store”.  This is a much anticipated event and a great way for students to deepen their understanding of money.  I will be sending out further information in the near future.
