WOW!  I just have to let you know how helpful the class has been today.  I came down with a very sore throat part way through the day and really couldn't talk at my usual volume.  All three middle school grades made an intentional effort to work quietly!  My 6th graders did an especially awesome job.  :)  Anyway, I just wanted you to know how much of a blessing they were.
