Greetings Super Heroes!

Well in just a day we will be back at it..!! I had someone tell me the other day that we only had like 50 school days left.. So by now that must be close to 40ish school days left. Now that may be exciting to YOU but my favorite super heros.. That’s NOT exciting to me! So much to cover and so little time!
2nd and 5th Period: This week we are going to do some MAGIC! Yep... Super Heroes who do magic! We will be magically taking fractions and turning them into decimals.. And then guess what?

As Spidey says each week... Whatever life holds in store for me, I will never forget these words: "With great power comes great responsibility." This is my gift, my curse. Who am I? I'm Spider-man. You too have great power.. Be responsible. REMEMBER You can do great things!
