Activities for week five 9/29 - 10/3

It is one thing to believe that you possess remarkable potential. It is another thing to have enough faith in yourself that you think you can fulfill it. Let's keep working together to tap into all you can be. I have seen good things from you and I hope to see much more. Please check Aeries and your S.S.R. Reading points - you can still come in and make them up (10 minutes reading for 10 points). Remember "Life's battles don't always go to the stronger or faster man, But soon or later, the man who wins is the man who thinks he can." anonymous "I know you can, if like the Little Blue Engine you think you can."
