Well, in my school we are on the down hill slide. Our students only have 24 days, the paras have 25 days and 26 for teachers.  It has finally gotten warm enough to be outside for some school activities. In one of the classes, we walked down to the outdoor classroom. For those of you who do not know we have a large bog/pond about 1/4 of mile behind the school. We have benches and tables made from the wood found around the pond. Some of the teachers take their classes down and teach their lessons there. It is a very peaceful and quiet spot to be able to be outside and think. To get to our pond you have to walk around the baseball field down the path to the wooden fence to the pond.
