How did that happen?!

What an incredible day for a field trip!
We had a blast!!!

You may have noticed that the work is getting a little harder and the pace is picking up.
Please encourage your child to PAY ATTENTION.
I tell them all the time that if they are paying attention - I will walk them through.
Some of them are running ahead of me, some are dawdling and some are right with me.
I want everyone to get the most out of first grade as possible!

A special note...
My husband has served as the president of Kiwanis this past year.
Tuesday, the 4th, Kiwanis is honoring him with a luncheon.
Therefore, I will not be at school.
I will tell the kids that I will not be there but, I wanted to give you a heads up
in case your child needs a little extra reassurance that all is well. A rash of "stomach aches" may
occur and I wanted you to know why.
I will be back Wednesday!

Enjoy this wonderful weather this weekend!
