We are "Taking Out the Garbage"!

Mrs. Sumsso and Cassie Calvert visited our class on Friday!  Mrs.  Sumsso was frustrated because she was reading her students' research reports and found many overused, boring words!  She referred  to these words as "Garbage Can Words"!  Our class has decided to officially ban the use of all "Garbage Can Words" so that Mrs. Ossmus doesn't become bored and frustrated when she reads the outstanding research reports written by her students!
