Here are the kids in their crowns--I always make crowns. With glitter. And other flair.
On the menu: pasta with tuna, garlic spinach, good bread, milk for some, rose' for others. Dessert: chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. Soooo delicious!
This year we had a very special surprise guest join us. Jumped right up on the bench.

In whhhat waaaaay (we recently watched Ferris Bueller's Day Off--remember that teacher?)do you want to 'get more learn': maybe try to start a school newspaper and put a funny cartoon in each issue.
Most looking forward to: air conditioners in all 3rd grade classrooms (they're portables), especially after PE when you're all sweaty. And seeing all my friends.
Caroline: in 2nd grade I want to work hard on: reading

We'll talk about our theme throughout the year. The feast is a fun yearly tradition, one we'll keep doing. Plus, now we get to have cake for breakfast tomorrow. Looks like I'm catching on already.
They let you off that easily? I hear nothing of YOUR plans to get more learn.
ReplyDeleteWhit, I want to LEARN how to sew this year. That counts, right? --ME
ReplyDeleteLike this tradition. Will take chocolate cake into the library next time to facilitate the getting of more learn.
ReplyDeleteComputamer tip for a Francophile: hold down the "option" key then the following letters: option+c = ç, option+i = î, on and on. From the Apple Help menu:
Turn on the Keyboard Viewer
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Language & Text, and then click Input Sources.
Open the Input Sources pane of Language & Text preferences
Select the Keyboard & Character Viewer checkbox.
Make sure the checkbox next to each input source you want to use is selected and that “Show Input menu in menu bar” is selected.
