I am looking forward to not hearing the complaints about homework and such, but after about a month I will be struggling to find ways to entertain them. I do have a few things planned, and we will see how it goes. Good luck! You get a long summer break! If you aren't starting until September that means you have three weeks longer for summer than we do here.Heffalumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13166154112206680302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-62422492442592770042007-05-17T13:40:00.000-08:002007-05-17T13:40:00.000-08:00#7 is the best.
