My Classroom Guidelines are always posted and sent home at the beginning of the year. 

It's Been Awhile...

HI!
 It HAS been awhile...and I have gotten a few emails reminding me of my neglect :). I have been busily teaching and making magic with my littles. With 11 more instructional days to go, my class is both winding down AND speeding up. There is so much work involved in closing up a classoom while still teaching and beginning prep for next year.

One big change I made this year, I tried my hand at having a parent volunteer one day a week. This was in addition to the monthly parent workshops I do. It was a very rewarding experiment. My caution ( and the reason I waited so many years to try it) : Find the right parent! it is hard to find just the right fit for your class and students. I found the right parent and will miss her greatly next school year.

I am making a commitment to myself to be more proactive on my blog...and post more about summer prepping! Any comments about how YOU plan for the new year during the summer months are welcome. And please, you are always welcome to continue emailing me with specific questions. I am a better emailer than blogger apparently!
