Happy Monday! Only 12.5 Days of school left and tons to do!

Dairy Queen will not be back open in time for our outting. So our class made suggestions for a different party and revoted.  They chose to watch The Karate Kid with Jaden Smith. 

12-year-old Dre Parker could've been the most popular kid in Detroit, but his mother's latest career move has landed him in China. Dre immediately falls for his classmate Mei Ying - and the feeling is mutual - but cultural differences make such a friendship impossible. Even worse, Dre's feelings make an enemy of the class bully, Cheng. In the land of kung fu, Dre knows only a little karate, and Cheng puts "the karate kid" on the floor with ease. With no friends in a strange land, Dre has nowhere to turn but maintenance man Mr. Han, who is secretly a master of kung fu. As Han teaches Dre that kung fu is not about punches and parries, but maturity and calm, Dre realizes that facing down the bullies will be the fight of his life. Written by Columbia Pictures  

This is a PG movie. It has the following profanity in it: 4 uses of "ass" 1 use of "dammit" ''4 uses of s**t'' '' 5 hells '' and 10 uses of oh my god.  I will be sending home a note.  I told the kids that parents might not agree to us watching this.  I am ok with that and so are the kids.  If you do not want your child to watch this video please let me know ASAP.  Email is fine and no one will be outed for being the one to "ruin" it for everyone else.  All but 3 kids wanted to see this movie.  Please let me know what your desire is. 

A reminder about the upcoming events in our classroom.
