The Dormouse started her second week of school today and brought home all the papers she worked on last week. Apparently they spent a lot of time getting to know one another. Thought you would enjoy a look at some of the things she shared with the class. The printed questions are in bold. Italics are her entries.

This year I want to learn: divisoin, and multapacation.

The last time I went to the library was: June 13th, 2010
(She must have checked her date book because darn if that's not specific.
)
