Well, we are winding down the first week of school. I'm exhausted, and even though the kids say they aren't they seem a little more subdued than normal, so I'm assuming they too are feeling the effects of a new schedule.
We began passing out books today. I talked to the students about the condition of the books and how they need to last through the year, without further abuse or damage. I have suggested they get book covers to try to hold them together the best they can. This year is social studies adoption, so next year the books will be brand new. I can hardly wait!!! Nonetheless, we will be using the books almost every day this year...they are a huge reference source for us.
Thanks to everyone for the colored pencils and dry erase markers. We use a tremendous amount of colored pencils during the year and the students don't realize what an important tool they are until we are out. We run out of blue first, so I have ordered extra blue colored pencils that will take us through May. Again, thanks for helping support the class.
Have a nice evening and I am looking forward to finishing off this week. (I was actually in bed asleep at 7:30 last night if that tells you anything!)
