Hi Ms. Seitz,
Tasfiya here.its sad to hear hat the turtles died. :( Well, seeyou in class on Friday! I cant wait to make our own fossils. Science really used to sound BORING! But,when you taught us, it got so fun! You're the reason why my favrite subject is science: because you make it fun! :)

It is sad, but luckily I was given the three baby turtles that are now in the science room. I think I will have a naming contest for them. I'm glad you are enjoying science so much. You are a really great student and I enjoy having you in my class!
Well, if you're going to have a naming contest i would like to enter!
im gonna take a look at the turtles during class and try to name them based on their traits.
Good idea. I think we'll do the contest in September.
Hi Ms. Seitz,
I am writing this on the first day of summer vacation. I really miss you! But I also had really fun when we played BS with you in class. Have a great great great summer! I am going to miss you when I graduate next year! I can't believe I'm a senior!
What are your plans this summer Tasfiya? Will you be in the neighborhood?
Yes I will be in the neighborhood since my family and I will be tired from fasting in Ramadan in my religion. Then we will celebrate our holiday and we arn't going anywhere but we will visit friends' houses. How's your summer? Are you going anywhere? I had a really fun time playing BS in class with you anyway!
And tomorrow, July 10 is my tenth birthday. I can't wait!
Also, do you know which teacher has 505? I am in 505 for fifth grade. Does class 505 have you for science Ms. Seitz? I hope so.
Happy Birthday Tasfiya! Hope it was a good one. I don't know who will have Class 505 in September. This past year it was Ms. Sparks and Ms. Shuckman. Ms. Sparks is teaching second grade in September and Ms. Shuckman is teaching with Ms. Friedman. So maybe they are your teachers, but I'm not sure. If I do some gardening this summer, how can I reach you easily?
You can reach me by my number my home number
And its okay by my mom if you need help with gardening at the school. And I check your blog everyday so you can also reach me by commenting here. Just say the date and time and I can come! Hope your having a great summer!
I'm going to stop by the garden today, Monday, at 4:45-5 pm. Hopefully the gates will be open. If u r around, stop by. Thanks Tasfiya.
