Day 165- What doesn't kill us...

... will merely drive us insane.
I have 8 students completely tested and leveled. I have 3 students who will need to be retested on higher levels. (yea!) And I won't be at school tomorrow because I have to register my son for Kindergarten. I am T-H-I-S close to offering money to my teammates if they will finish testing my kids for me.

Hmmm.... nah. Too much trouble.

But, come Friday morning, we are testing our brains out, then... PARTY! Well, PICNIC!! Fun, fun, fun!

Mrs. Green, our librarian, received an odd phone call today... from Farmer Brown's farm! We think someone got confused since Mrs. Green also lives on a farm, and her number is close to Clifton Hills' number. Anyhow, the message was from Duck! Unfortunately, Mrs. Green doesn't speak 'duck', so she brought it to me. (since I am fluent).

The message told us that Duck left a note from Farmer Brown in my mailbox in the office.

Boy Howdy! We are all about a compromise! We decided that the pigs would be willing to share the pool with the ducks if the ducks would share their diving board with the pigs.

And since Farmer Brown asked us to show him... we drew out our plans!

 I hope Farmer Brown is impressed! My students have a future in construction, I'm sure!

One of my students is still unconvinced that Farmer Brown is really sending us these letters. For some reason, she is convinced that I am writing them! Well, I'll be out tomorrow, so if there is a letter from Farmer Brown, that will be proof that Farmer Brown is real!

I guess we'll see!
