We had the 8th Grade Panorama picture today that took all of Period 2 so they did not (and will not) see the videos.  These would be useful in reinforcing the subject matter but not absolutely necessary.

Miniatures Club - Painting cowboys.  Saturday, May 18 we will be having a game day from 10 to 2 in G5.  We will be playing Aerodrome 3.  If you are a high school (or beyond) former member, let we know if you would like to come.  I need to arrange for food and game equipment.
