March 2, 2009

Due to a skiing injury, I’m taking some time to rest and ice my knee. This week, I’m going to try to be at school mornings to work with the children. I should hear soon when my surgery will be scheduled. After the surgery, I’ll probably be out from 4-6 weeks. We’ll try to make the transition as smooth as possible for the children and the guest teacher. I’ll be back as soon as I’m able!

Our goal this year at Forest Ridge is to improve students’ writing. During the week, I’d like to encourage you and your child to write together. Write what you will be doing to help the guest teacher and others in your room to be successful. Remember your goal is to do your personal best and to learn! Writing together encourages your child to see you having fun with writing, and allows you an opportunity to spend time with your child while he/she learns. Please have your child bring it in by Friday.

Reading logs are due on Thursday.
