I was so excited to see all the parents come to the volunteer meeting. I got tons of phone calls and emails from the parents who couldn't make it to the meeting as well. We have lots of help for class parties this year. It should be lots of fun. I've been working on the schedule for parents to come into the class and help and I've been overwhelmed! I'm trying to figure out a way to get all of these great parents into help out. We are going to be able to do some fantastic things will all of this extra help.
We have decided that we will be going to Black Island Farms for our field trip this year. The kids will get to pick a pumpkin and do all sorts of fun stuff there. It will be nice to have our field trip done so early in the year. The end of the year is always so busy so it will be nice to have one more thing checked off the list.
My class listened to Pres. Obama's speech this month. It was a little long for their little bodies to sit still but, we learn some good things. When I asked my class what they learned after the speech this is some of what they said.
- We need to wash our hands (that was a good one!)
- Remember to ask for help
- Try our best
- Grow up to be something (very good!)
It is always fun to get the kindergarten perspective on things.
