Dear Mrs. Dela Cruz,
I couldn't copy the idioms because I didn't have time. I will copy it tomorrow.

Dear Mrs. DC,
For the "Give up Oil, not so fast", when is the colored picture due? Also, since we are redoing our essay, the essay isn't due tomorrow right?

*When are we gonna start our coin drive for Japan relief?

Mrs. Dela Cruz said...

Dear Vamika,
That is fine. Today was a busy day with the play and May Day rehearsal.

Sincerely,
Mrs. D.C.

Dear ?
The colored picture for your cause and effect essay will be due this week Friday. I will be returning your essays back tomorrow. So, your revisions are not due tomorrow. :)

The final revised and typed essay will be due on Friday. I will be giving you time in class to type the essay but you can also type it at home.

For the Japan Relief coin drive, we will be starting it soon. I am awaiting for our school fundraising application with the Red Cross to be approved. As soon as it does, we will be passing out the coin jars to the different classrooms.

Sincerely,
Mrs. D.C.

Dear Mrs.DC,
What step do we go up to?

Mrs. Dela Cruz said...

Dear Rebecca,
Work on this assignment at recess. Since Mrs. Kaneshiro has given your class about 3 weeks or more weeks to work on this, please start earlier next time (not the week it is due). :)

Sincerely,
Mrs. D.C.
