The Weber Weekly

It's been a fantastic week in second grade!  I'm happy to report that we haven't had any problem with our bracelets this week...hooray!!  Thank you for talking to your child and helping me get everyone on track. 

Are you going to the Ice Cream Social tonight?  Mr. Weber, Keaton, and I will be there at 5:30.  We'll stay for as long as Keaton lets us, but everyone else can continue the fun until 7:30.  I sure hope to see all of you there!

I'm super excited about the class t-shirts that we're ordering.  We are going to look ADORABLE matching on spirit days, field trips, etc.  I'm submitting everything tomorrow morning, so I really appreciate all of the prompt orders and payments.  I will let you all know as soon as the shirts are ready.  I can't wait! 

Next Tuesday is Family Night Out at Culvers.  You can go for lunch or dinner and Grand Prairie will benefit.  Eat at Culver's of Joliet - 1500 Rt. 59 Joliet, IL 60431 on September 17th and they will give a percentage of the sales to our school.  Flyers will be going home with the children.  Take in the flyer when you order and tell them you are from Grand Prairie school.  I will be there around 5:00, so I hope to see you then!

Remember those old CD players that we all had before the iPod came along?  No, I'm not talking about Walkman tape players, but the newer old things called the Discman.  I'm wondering if you have one of those lying around your house that still works, but you're no longer using.  If you do, we would be so grateful if you would donate it to our classroom listening center.  I currently have five in nice, working condition, but we need two more.  I'm planning on going out this weekend to buy them, but if you have one and could let me know before tomorrow, that would be awesome.  We could also use more headphones and AA batteries.  The children and I would be so appreciative if you could help restock the listening center. 

Can you take a moment and give me your opinion about Remind101?  Am I sending too many reminders?  Just the right amount?  Not enough?  Is there anything you want me to change?  Only about half of our class signed up, so I want to make sure it's worth my time to continue and that it's beneficial to you if you did sign up.  You can either comment right under this post on the blog or shoot me an email at jweber@psd202.org.  I'd really appreciate your feedback! 


Here's what's on the agenda for next week:

• Tuesday:  Family Night at Culvers
• Wednesday:  Library book checkout - make sure your child has BOTH books
• PE on Wednesday and Thursday - wear or bring gym shoes

I hope you all have a nice weekend!  Enjoy the cooler temperatures!!  I'm looking forward to spending my time with this little goofball.  He loved dinner so much last night, he decided to lick the bowl clean...and then wear it like a hat.  What a nut!
