Week 11 (724)

I got a sweet card & treat from my BFF Mrs. Smith.  :)  I got 6 love notes from my kiddos this week. 
We made a Get Well card for Jaquan-he has pneumonia.  I washed Mrs. Huff's field trip shirts for her so she wouldn't have to.  :)  We did our final giving plate this week & gave it to Mrs. B (Mady's idea).  I also gave a cupcake to my Secret Pal.  Finally, we did our weekly recycling.  :)

Week 8-Teacher Appreciation Week-and HOW! :) (600!)

This week was teacher appreciation week at school & oh my goodness did I EVER feel appreciated! We got so many coupons from area stores & the PTSA & Dr. Bob served us lunch twice this week-it was SO THOUGHTFUL & delicious!  :)  I was pampered BEYOND belief from all of my families this week:  I received goodies to eat, Post-It notes & pens, love notes from students & parents, smelly good stuff, gift cards AND flowers!  It was AMAZING!  
We couldn't let Teacher Appreciation go by w/o appreciating the most amazing K teacher we know so we tried to show her just a fraction of how much we love Mrs. Huff!  We sent her Post It notes, flowers, a love note & we took her breakfast this morning.  I hope she knows how much we appreciate her b/c we REALLY, REALLY DO!  :)
I gave Mrs. Lawson a coupon & a BD card.  I gave Mrs. Goodwin some safety pins to use when she consigns.  Mady & I made cute little "acorn" treats & we gave some to Mrs. Huff & my Secret Pal. We made a Thinking of You card for Brayden & his family; his great-grandfather passed away this week.  :(  Aditi brought in Box Tops for the class.
Mrs. Schippers let us borrow a copy of Johnny Appleseed.  Someone gave my Mom two coupons.  We gave her one as well.  My Mom worked ALL day in my classroom Thursday doing "housekeeping" stuff for me.  :)
Our students showed their appreciation to the other teachers in the school as well which made me SO VERY PROUD of them!  :)
It was a FANTASTIC week!  
We did not get to recycle today b/c it was raining this a.m. & I had a Dr. checkup this afternoon-hopefully we can get to it next week!
