  5. Mr.Buxton a lot of us lost our genre pizzas so could you give us another one. also if you are worried that we will lose the pizza again we can write our names and then you can keep the pizza and when we are done with a conference you or one of us can put it up.

    Mr.Buxton, I went out of my way to search through this my day book vocabulary list. The reason for this is because of my comment today in class, about not all advanced words were three or more syllables long. The words above are all words you yourself have taught us, put on our vocabulary list, yet are 1 or 2 syllables long.

    I always try to prove myself right if I hav the energy.
