Dear wonderful Parents, I didn’t know how to say enough thank you’s, for making me feel so appreciated this week and frankly, all year with your kind notes, encouraging emails, and wonderful cards, so I thought I would say it ??? times above. Can anyone figure out how many times? I will be logging into Amazon tomorrow, with my gift card and do some shopping and hit Lowes, yoo-hoo!! I am having a “stay-vacation" playing golf, working out, sleeping in, of course, and getting to some of those jobs around the house I have been putting off for a while. I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend and enjoy a special week with your families. From what I heard, sounds like students are going to have a lot of fun. Be safe and get some rest, Mr. Bullard here to edit.

Hope you have adjusted with the time change and the kiddos have had a nice Monday off! I love the light in the evenings to sneak out and get in 9 holes of golf after dinner! Topics this week: Reading AND Writing: I have finished the BAS reading assessments, so ask your child how many reading levels they have grown, I am very happy to say most have improved 2 levels!! Thanks so much for continuing to support your child's love of reading by getting them a copy of the book they chose to read for book club. These books are on their individual reading levels. We will be having a reading test tomorrow covering text structures/features, and 1st and 2nd hand accounts. Students are now working on their magazine project writing their own articles about the non-fiction text structures (description, compare & contrast, cause & effect, chronological order, and problem & solution).
