This fuzzy creature is an arachnid, or spider. All spiders have eight legs. Tarantulas are generally not poisonous to humans, and some people even keep them as pets!
Problem of the day:
Cameron plays the goal keeper (goalie) on his lacrosse team. He gets hit with the ball a lot. He has many bruises on his arms and legs. He loves it better than any other position though. I think Cameron is an awesome lacrosse player. In this picture, you can see him saving a ball. Can you find the ball?
Problem of the day:
Do a Google search for United States flags and identify which state displays this flag (Mr. Gutierrez will have tickets for extra credit answers!) :

I’m learning to play a new musical instrument that you can see in the photo below. Does anyone know what it’s called? Can you find out? How would you find out?
Problem of the day- copy and fill in the missing numbers in the tally chart:
These are my kitties Charlie and Marley. Charlie is a boy and Marley is a girl. They look very much alike. However, Charlie has a white chin and Marley has a black chin. Plus they wear different colored collars. That helps me tell them apart. In the picture, they are still kittens. I took the picture two years ago.
This is me when I was a little girl at the beach near my house. I was making a sand candle. To make a sand candle, you dig a hole in the damp sand and put in seashells. Then you find a stick and tie a special string, called a wick. The wick goes into the hole. Then you pour melted wax into the sandy hole. When the wax cools, it hardens. You can then take the candle out of the hole. The outside of the candle is sandy and you can see the seashells. My mother had to pour the wax because it was hot. Making sand candles is a fun activity.

This is a video on how to reduce fractions. It is six minutes long. Maybe it will help you figure out reducing the fraction problem that is today’s extra credit.
This is Cameron when he was almost four. It was taken at Payne School in front of the old Room 23. It isn’t there anymore because it was torn down to make room for our new school building. He seems so little here!
