Monday

Hey gang!
It was a good day, don't you think?
I really enjoyed the work we accomplished this day.

I really enjoyed meeting with the blue group as well.
I can't wait until I get to meet with each one of you.

Remember to fill out your Read-at-Home sheets this week.
Try to read some each night. This will make reaching the 100 minutes easier.

Have a GREAT night!
