Classroom Parent x2

I volunteered to be the room parent for whatever of my kids classes did not already have a volunteer. They asked me to be room parent for Amy and Mason. Amy has the best teacher. She is so organized and is awesome at making sure the parents know everything going on in the classroom. She sends out at least two emails a week with spelling words and homework assignments, etc. I love it! I asked her teacher if I could come to class and take a few pictures so Amy could finish her Heritage Makers book for the contest and she asked me to take pictures of each kid in the class for her student of the week certificates she makes for the kids. Here is the picture I took of Amy in her class. Also a picture of all her class. I had to stand on top of the counter to get the whole class. I really want a wide angle lens.

Anyway, so far the year is going well, Amy told me she is in the lower math class. Last year, she got an award for Math. What is up with that? New Mexico must be pretty far behind. Mason is doing well in his class. He has gotten green all but one day. And that was because he was arguing with his friend about something and not paying attention to his teacher.

He is having a difficult time concentrating in the afternoon. I think the full day is really hard for him. Also his teacher really needs a teachers aid to just walk around helping those little ones remember what they are supposed to be doing. I think there are about 25 kids in his class. That is so many kindergarteners with just one teacher. Yikes! Emily had 11 in her kinder class in NM. I hope Mason just needs some adjusting time and gets better at getting his afternoon work done as he gets used to the class routine. Mrs. Luckow tells me that he likes to help others get their work done and he doesn't do his own. I decided that is cause he has so many bossy sisters. It rubs off! Well, another Saturday to enjoy before getting settled into a new house. Next weekend we are going back to NM to get a moving van and pack up our house. Yeah!
