Getting started...

Last Tuesday I sent home my consent forms with the students for their parents to sign. Unfortunately, I have only received two forms back out of the six I sent home. I am trying not to get discouraged..we did only have three days last week because of the snow day on Friday and several forms and information going home to parents about after school activities coming up in February. The parents of my students this year are usually very prompt when sending things back to school. I sent the consent form home again today with the four students I still need permission from. I hope to get them back tomorrow. I may have to wait and send the parent survey home next week so the parents do not become overwhelmed and so the survey doesn't get overlooked with all the other papers. I am ready to start our new sight word instruction tomorrow...anxious to see how the students respond!
