Dateline Room 207: MID-SUMMER UPDATE

Well we forgot all about writing the last edition for the year before summer hiatus: sorry we left the Field Day issue up so long.

We hope that you all are completely enjoying your summer vacation from school.  Your teachers miss you.  The building is lifeless without you there.  We are eager to hear about the fun you had when you return to St. Lawrence on Monday, August 23.

Mr. Hilvers enjoyed seeing so many current and former students during the Festival.  One became "addicted" (her words) to the somewhat lame but mysteriously interesting Gift Pull booth which he was working Saturday night.  She eventually moved inside the booth so that she could sit down while opening the hundreds of envelopes she purchased, and after winning time and again, she could hardly carry her loot home.   A few others kindly offered him a dollar so that he could try his luck at pulling envelopes off the wire, however this proved to be a losing strategy.  He really appreciated the thought, though.

In other news, Pete the turtle is doing well in Mr. Hilvers' backyard turtle pen, swimming in his pool at will, and eating every scrap he is fed.  We found a second turtle, a much larger one, after one of the thunderstorms in June.  This one has a high arch in his shell, and is much more yellow in color.  Nominations for naming him will commence when we return to school.  He's not quite as calm as Pete yet: still is trying to escape.

If you haven't already, now would be a good time to start on your Summer Math Book.  One eager fifth sixth-grade student we ran in to at the festival had hers finished the week after school!  Remember, a nice treat awaits you the first week of school if you turn yours in completed upon your return.

Be well until we see you again.
