Happy Holidays, Explorers!

I have absolutely loved teaching all of you this semester.  It was fun, exciting, and sometimes frantic few months.  Thank you for making the year so wonderful for me. 

Hope you have a happy and restful holiday break.  See you next year!

Looking forward to 2011 (but not too much),

Ms. Davis

Be Uniquely You



Don't let anyone tell you that you have to be a certain way.  Be unique.  Be how you feel. - Melissa Etheridge



Disclose

To make known, reveal, or uncover

The court documents did not disclose the name of the victim because she wanted to remain unknown.

Dimensions

Measurement in length, width, and thickness

The dimensions of my cabinet are about 4' x 3.5' x 2'.

Dilation

Enlargement or reduction

A dilation is a way to transform an image that produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but a different size.

Differentiate

To mark differently from other things.

Mrs. Ramsey's vibrant red hair differentiates her from others in the hallway.

Detected

To have discovered something

I detected a strong scent of cinnamon as I walked into the kitchen.
