Hello!

Thank you for understanding my brief hiatus from posting last week.  I was down in Salt Lake City continuing training.  I got to work closely with some amazing instructors, I had the opportunity to learn some new things, but most importantly, I was inspired with some amazing ideas that I am excited to bring back to my own classroom.

I missed my students terribly tho, so I am very excited to get back into the classroom this week, even though it is only for a short week.

Very happy belated birthday to Donovan!

Nuts and Bolts:

  • If you have not yet signed up for a Parent Teacher Conference, please follow this link. The sign up program sends you a reminder email, so you shouldn’t miss your time.  I’m looking forward to meeting with all of you!
  • This is your reminder that this week we are on early release schedule, and we have Thursday and Friday off for fall break.
  • Parent Teacher Conferences mean MAPA BOOK FAIR!  Get ready (and excited!) to buy some books.
  • Speaking of books, if you are OK with having your child read from the Young Adult section of the library, (think Twilight, Hunger Games, Michael Vey’s novels)  your child will need permission.  As the books in this section can be quite heavy at times and sometimes not suitable for the age, reading level, and maturity of some upper elementary students, my students cannot check books out without permission.  Please, consider the topics young adult novels often contain, consider the maturity and reading level of your student, and if you would like to give permission, please shoot me an email at lhughes@mariamontessoracademy.org  or send in a note with your student.
  • Lost and found is overflowing! Everything will  be donated after Parent Teacher Conferences.  Please make sure you check that out while you are in the school for conferences to make sure all things are returned to you.
  • From the MMA Monday Moments page:
