Welcome Back, ‘Gators!

Mrs. Heacox — Mon, 03 Jan 2011 14:16:37 +0000

Welcome back everyone from Winter Break!

I know I have been slacking a little on this blog, but it has been blocked from school. I think we are fixing the problem so I decided I should start keeping it updated again. I have a few book reviews to post as well as information about the book club and where you can go to chat about it. I will also try to keep the daily agenda up to date as well!

Have a great day. Only 2 weeks until exams!!!
