We went to our first YPC today. Some of us enjoyed it, some of us did not. We are baking for the first time this year on Friday. Some students have been asked to bring in ingredients to help with this. If anyone has an old hand blender or muffin tins at home that they would like to donate to the class they would be appreciated. Notices went home today regarding parent/teacher interviews taking place next week. A sign up sheet is posted outside the classroom door. Homework tonight:

- home reading
