Hi there. I have so much to say, but no time to say it. I have had meetings after school, and that is not normal for me. I will get caught up over the weekend. Homework tonight is to study the NE states and capitals with a parent. Practice matching the state with the capital and then use the take home maps to point to the location of each state. Kids also brought home their update on their class money system status. Please look, discuss, sign it, and have your child return it tomorrow. You will also find an Energy Bus Positive Word slip. We read the Energy Bus for Kids book today. It is all about staying positive and making goals. It is also about actually closing our eyes and visualizing ourselves doing the goal. For example, I had the kids close their eyes, picture themselves at the Metra, and actually walking across the stage to get their high school diploma. We also visualized ourselves doing the job we want to do in the future. Now, they picked ONE word that reflects what they are going to visualize themselves achieving in the near future. We all shared our word, and why we wrote them. It was a great lesson!!! If your child does their homework and shares both papers with you, please write HOMEWORK in the planner for $50 tomorrow. Thanks for all you do at home and all your support at school!!!
Have a great night!
