I Believe I will be wearing some GRIZ gear tomorrow!

Hello there! I just got off the phone with Mrs. Woods. She was gloat, gloat, gloating!!! She said she has subbed all week and this group was the cream of the crop! She said she has NEVER seen this level of respect for one another and for her before. Can I tell ya how proud I am right now!!!! She also shared that Caden did an AMAZING job running the CC meeting. She said everyone was respectful towards him and that he did a wonderful job teaching. So much so that she said her jaw about hit the floor watching him!!! Well done Mr. Caden!

There is no homework tonight, except to finish what they didn't finish in class.

We will be doing some origami hurricanes tomorrow morning. Then we will help Mrs. Auch's class build theirs. There will be a lot of geometry going on while folding tomorrow!!! The kids have been learning about hurricanes in science class. I used to do the origami project when I taught science before so asked Mrs. Auch if I could do it now too. It is cool, because they can make the eye of the hurricane smaller and larger just like a real one!!!! Fun, fun!

Tomorrow is the coupon buy in. Kids may use their fake money to buy reward coupons tomorrow. They are excitedly waiting for this! We counted our money as a morning work yesterday, so they knew how much they could budget for this buy in. They were reminded to keep a safe stash and not spend every last penny! Ask your child what they plan on buying tomorrow. If they can tell you, write COUPON in the planner for $10 tomorrow.

Fitness club and PE are tomorrow as well. Please help remember those shoes. Kids without safe shoes are not able to participate in PE and that knocks down their grade. It is also like not doing their homework and costs them a $20 fine each time.

Library books area also due back tomorrow.

Rumor has it we have a birthday in the house tomorrow!!!! Miss. Jennifer will be a year older tomorrow!!! I am sure we will have fun buying her treats. Yum! Kids will also be able to pre-order birthday treats from Coewyn. His birthday is this Sunday. He wanted his cash before the coupon buy in, but we already had Jen's birthday on Friday. So...we came to the solution of pre-selling. Real world or what??? So, kids will decide if they want a treat on Monday, and will buy it on Friday. Cool!

Finally, tomorrow is the famous cat/GRIZ day! Kids may wear their favorite team's gear to school. Mrs. Meier has stated that she does NOT want hats worn in the building. So, lets leave those at home. All other gear is on though. Those wearing GRIZ gear will earn $100, and those wearing cat gear will have to pay $100. Kidding!!! All that show their team's spirit will earn $50. :0) GO GRIZ!

As for my day off, all went great at court. A new agreement between myself and my children's father was arranged and all is settled. Thank you to those that texted me good luck wishes and prayers. It was nice to be reminded to BELIEVE!!! :0) You are all so sweet and good to me.

Have a wonderful night in the snow!
