Awesome Weekend! I didn't get home until around 12:15 a.m. this morning.
Beautiful wedding! All my kids and grandchildren were there. I'm hoping our family picture turned out. I wish I lived closer to my grandkids. Three months until I see them all again.
Now back to my other world! I missed my class and wondered what they were doing!

*Late Policy - Thanks for trying to have your child on time. Remember your child has to go to the office to sign a late slip. After so many times of being late, Mr. Hogg calls.

*Running Shoes - Still a few students without extra shoes! Remember to practice tying shoe laces and zippers.

*Red Pencils - 2 red pencils!

*School Pictures - September 21

*Pizza Day - I'm pretty sure the students loved their pizzas and being able to eat together as a class. I'm looking forward to the next pizza day in October so that I can enjoy it with them.

*Friends - Keep reminding your child about how important it is to go home first, and then make arrangements to play with friends.

*If you attended Meet the Teacher Night, I want to thank you for making the special effort to come! Hope you won a book or the free school fees!

*Character Education for September is RESPECT!

*Home Reading - Thanks for all of your help! You are awesome! It is so nice to have parents that support their children and me!

*V.I.P. - Thanks for remembering. They are so excited to get up and give their clues!

*Library Books - Please try to return library books on time. Students are allowed to have books for 1 week.

*Please read my blog! I'm trying to find out why you can't comment on it. This is a whole new experience for me and I'm learning so much. Thanks for being so patient with me. Sometimes it is hard to teach "old dogs" new tricks.

*Snacks - I'm so impressed with the way you remember to send snacks for your child at recesses and Snack Day on Friday.

*Sight Words - Look for the sheet and cut them into strips and put on the ring I sent last week. Kids seem to like to practice words on a ring for some reason. Scrambled up the words so that they aren't always in the same order.

*If you have any concerns about your child at school, please let me know!

*Autobiography and Celebration Sheet- Thank you so very much for sending them.

*Kleenex - Still a few students who haven't sent 2 boxes. It is amazing how fast we go through a box, especially since we have students who have caught a cold already.
