Getting it together!

I am so happy to say that we are finally getting through the main academic lessons planned for each day now! Its taken a long time to get there, and we still have a few "glitches" to work out but I'm beginning to "see the light!"

Thanks for all your help and support. Especially Zion's family for the ITunes card and Daniel's family for an ITunes card and his mom volunteering last week in the classroom! 
I can't wait to meet you all again in person next week at Open House on Tuesday, September 9th. Please 1st go to the cafeteria at 6:15. Dr Simmons-Deveaux will welcome you and introduce the PTA officers, explain how the evening works, then dismiss you to come to the classroom at 6:30ish. 
See you then! 

Things to keep "fresh" in the kids' minds-
1. Remove/pack AR books each day. 
2. They are older and need to take responsibility for their work, their self, and their supplies.
3. Effort is always more noticeable and rewarded than natural skill. 

Class rule: I will try my best!


Ways to help-
1. We need 25 sets of 3" x 3" sticky notes (1 per student)

2.iTunes gift cards will help me buy audio books for our listening center ipods.

3. If you know any one looking to make donations/tax write-offs/difference in a child's daily life turn them onto our www.donorschoose.com/mollygustafson projects.

Peace and love families
