I got rid of the incentive cards today. Most kids do not have any problem with them, but some kids who are getting 5 or more initials are then just giving up on behavior because they figure they already lost the incentive. Now I will just be giving out detentions for disrespectful or unsafe behavior. Smaller things like talking will have 2 warnings before the detention. After 3 or more detentions, an in school suspension will be given, and after that an out of school suspension.

Tomorrow is a special Pajama dress up day. Wear pajamas, bring slippers, a blanket and pillow :) In the afternoon we will be watching the movie The Polar Express with our kindergarten pals. If a student cannot behave tomorrow morning, they might miss out on this fun activity.

I recommend students to bring a rain poncho(you can get them cheap at Walgreen's) or to bring a large garbage bag to punch holes in as a makeshift one. They should also wear layers to keep warm.

Book Orders

I handed out Sept. book orders yesterday. Today I am sending home a letter telling you how to order books online with your credit card. There is a one-time activation code to enter once you get to the scholastic site, and then you can make your own username and password that you can use all year long. Every book purchased online gets us a free book for the classroom library.

I do book orders once a month. This one is due Sept. 17th. If you would rather not use the online ordering, please use a check whenever possible made out to "Scholastic". It is easier for me, because with cash then I have to turn around and write a personal check.

Thank you!!!
