Enrollment is Open!

If you haven't already, be sure to enroll in SPEF Summer School!  Enrollment opened for South Pasadena residents on April 12, and should be open for non-residents by the 26th.  I am teaching Hogwarts Year I (per. 1), Hogwarts Year II (per. 2), American Girls (per. 3), and Book Cooks (per. 4 & 5), but I really encourage everyone to look at the other offerings to find what appeals to you. 

Check my links on the left to go to the SPEF website for more information.  Or, stop by the SPEF office located at the SPUSD District Office to pick up a schedule of classes. 

A note about books:  If you are planning on enrolling in Hogwarts, you will need a US copy of the book (published by Scholastic).  If you don't already own one, paperbacks are currently on sale at Borders, buy one get one 50% off.  Borders Harry Potter Sale  The books are also available at Amazon.  In the American Girls class, 4 books will be read whole-group:  Meet Felicity, Meet Samantha, Meet Molly and Meet Kit.  It is not necessary to have copies of these books, but you can easily find them online (see Amazon link) or in-store if you want to read along each week.  Since we read a different book or story every day in Book Cooks, students do not need to bring copies to class.  Many of these books should be widely available at your local library as well, so be sure to bring what you need to class on June 28!
