Hoot #1
Our first hoot deserves a big ole HOOT! HOOT! We just recently learned that the 6 snow days
we had this year were forgiven for the students! That
means students will not have to make up the days we missed due to snow. AHHHHHH! Just think of all the possibilities
. . .no more Saturday School, two days off for Easter, and no school after
Memorial Day. This was great news for
everyone! Now we will wait to see if they are forgiven for teachers as well!
Hoot #2
This week is bittersweet for us.
We began our 4th Nine Weeks of the year. This means we are almost at the end of the
year! YIKES!! The end of the year is a mixture of emotions
for us. It means a lot of craziness to
get things done before the year is up; it means tears because our time is
almost up with our kiddos; it means tears of joy because our kiddos will
finally get to show how much they have grown this year; it means joy because summer is drawing near
for us to get some much needed time off.
This
Week’s Holler
This week’s holler goes out to Emily Peden! After our post about
field trip to the Orpheum, we learned that this awesome teacher is just a 30
minute drive from us!! Emily teaches in Memphis at an inner city school. A majority of her students are African
refugees. How awesome is that! Since Emily
is the only kindergarten class at her school, she began blogging to form her
personal support group. Kinder Glitter
Girls loves Emily’s latest post on the book talk that she is currently doing, Worksheets
Don’t Grow Dendrites. We have also
been reading the same book and have really enjoyed it. Check out her blog and
see all the ways that she is using manipulatives in her class! We
can’t to meet up with Emily!
