Do we ever have to come to school like on the weekends or like come for meetings after school is over?????

Dear Colin.. I think we got it all handled and Ryan we will NOt MEET ON WEEKENDS or after school. We will work during IE once a week and the rest is done independently with your group outside of school. This is completely enrichment for you, but fun to investigate and present something at the end of your hard work!

ReplyDeletealso thank you for setting this up! I would never be able to ask you at school.
I think if you and your partner are wearing Brazil soccer colors and are authentic, it would be a fitting costume! I am all about soccer! So are the people of Brazil!! Mr. Bodjanac went to Brazil, ask him what he thinks about your idea! :) Come and see me and let me know what you discussed. :)
