October 10 - SVA ELL Class Work

Hi Class,

I understand there was no teacher in my classes yesterday, October 9.  I am sorry about that.  Today I will make sure you have a teacher by sending Mrs. Rivera to class!  You will enjoy her.  :)

Please read and follow the plan below.  I have also shared some photos from Washington, D.C. at the end.  

Blessings and Happy Sabbath!

Mr. Rivera

------------------------------------

Tuesday, October 7 was Community Service Day.

On Wednesday, October 8, we went to the international admissions for tours of James Madison University and Eastern Mennonite University. 

On Thursday and Friday, October 9-10, I will be out of town, so you will have a substitute teacher.  

Here is the work you will need to do THURSDAY and FRIDAY.  I will be back in class on Monday, October 13.
