First Post of the Year

Wow.  I truly had full intentions of posting to our classroom blog at least once weekly. I'll have to get better at this, hopefully once it gets less crazy it'll be easier.  Not that it's a teeny tiny bit crazy this time of the year, nope not at all!

I hope you've been following our classroom newsletters.  I've recently switched to sending them home weekly instead of monthly. It's proving easier on my end so hopefully you're enjoying the updates and spelling words all in one place.  Please continue to read over them each week as any new info you need to be aware of will be in there.

Yesterday was our Grandparent's Day event.  We had several Special People in our classroom and it was great to see the students showing their grandparents the areas of our classroom they found to be important.  Last night was also our Open House!  Out of 18 kiddos, we had 10 families represented.  Again, the kiddos really took charge of demonstrating to families what we learn in the classroom, the special places in our room, and things in our room they find to be important.  It was also a time for parents to sign up for Parent-Teacher Conferences....so if you were unable to make it, please watch your child's backpack for a notice that will let you know when your conference is scheduled.

I believe that is it for today! My game plan is to have student input on what goodies we'll share on the blog and eventually posting up a virtual tour of our classroom.  I'll do my best to keep this updated but as this is a new adventure and addition to our classroom, it may take some time to get it into our routine.....bare with us :)


Thanks for all you do for your kiddo....
