Overview of the week of Oct. 10 - Oct. 14

"And why do we fall, Bruce? So we can learn to pick ourselves up." 
~Thomas Wayne from Batman Begins (2005)


It is okay to fall as long as you learn from your mistakes.  This can be applied to life, school, sports, and friendships.  If no one made any mistakes many of our greatest inventions would have never developed.  Our class is learning that the best way to learn is from your mistakes.  


Announcements:
The Grand Canyon reservation money is due by October 14th.
