Tool Day

Today was tool day, which is a day where parents can volunteer to come in and talk to classes about their jobs (and bring the "tools" for their job). My students got to hear from:

1. Delta flight attendant/ RN


2. Mechanical Engineers

3. KSL TV videographer/producer

4. Jetblue travel agent (Haley's mom)
The kids learned a lot about these careers and some of them seemed excited about them. To go along with Tool Day the students were encouraged to dress up as a career of their choice. I was impressed at how many of my students participated in this. I want to thank all the parents that were willing to come in and speak with our class. We had a great time!

Hoedown

On Thursday we had a hoedown at school. Many of the kids came dressed in country attire ready to have some fun. They were a bit nervous going into the hoedown because they were going to be dancing with a partner, but after the Hoedown the kids were talking about how much fun they had. They said it wasn't nearly as bad dancing with a partner as they thought it would be.

Shout Out

I have to give a shout out to all my wonderful students and parents! I felt very appreciated and cared for today when a couple moms came in with flowers and birthday cake to help celebrate my birthday. I know many of you moms donated to this and I want to THANK YOU! I feel very blessed to have the students that I have this year, and the parents of my students are AWESOME too!
