They stayed together, answered when I called out their names, and sat very well while we were in the gym. <br /><br />They did have questions on whether or not it was a drill or if it was real and how long we had to stay there. I was honest with them and told them that there was a storm coming and we were going to the gym to stay safe until it was over. I am happy to report that they all stayed calm. No one became worked up or got upset. Most importantly there were no tears and no complaining! <br /><br />We practiced this drill earlier in the year and everyone knew what to do. I am <br />very impressed with all of our students and staff members. <br /><br />Give your brave kindergartner a pat on the back!<br />Mrs. Blair<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8155990505191898264-8663496165261063804?l=blairkindergarten.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Mrs. Bliair's Kindercatshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00820079884494159110noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8155990505191898264.post-60779657599866538592009-05-04T10:06:00.002-05:002009-05-04T10:12:13.066-05:00Mrs. Blair's Kindercat News <br />May 4-8, 2009<br /><br />Reading<br />Our story of the week is Old MacDonald had a Farm.

When you thought I wasn't<br />looking, I heard you say a prayer <br />and I knew that there is a God I could always talk to <br />and I learned to trust in Him. <br />When you thought I wasn't looking, <br />I saw you make a meal and take it to a friend who was<br />sick and I learned that we all have to help take care<br />of each other. When you thought I wasn't looking, <br />I saw you take care of our house and everyone in it <br />and I learned we have to take care of what we<br />are given. When you thought I wasn't looking, <br />I saw how you handled your responsibilities, <br />even when you didn't feel well <br />and I learned that I would have to be responsible<br />when I grow up. When you thought I wasn't looking, <br />I saw tears come from your eyes <br />and I learned that sometimes things hurt,<br />but it's all right to cry. <br />When you thought I wasn't looking, <br />I saw that you cared <br />and I wanted to be everything that I could be. <br />When you thought I wasn't looking, <br />I learned most of life's lessons that I need to know <br />to be a good and productive person when I grow up. <br />When you thought I wasn't looking, <br />I looked at you and wanted to say, <br />"Thanks for all the things I saw,<br />when you thought I wasn't looking." <br /><br />THIS IS FOR ALL OF THE PEOPLE I KNOW<br />WHO DO SO MUCH FOR OTHERS, <br />BUT THINK THAT NO ONE EVER SEES. <br />LITTLE EYES SEE A LOT!<br />Each of us (parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, teacher, friend) <br />influences the life of a child. <br />How will you touch the life of someone today?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8155990505191898264-463742197495809016?l=blairkindergarten.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Mrs. Bliair's Kindercatshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00820079884494159110noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8155990505191898264.post-76935682193181062292008-11-11T11:59:00.002-06:002008-11-11T12:04:41.874-06:00We were honored to be invited to the Veteran's Day Program today in the High School Gym.

He is a very good boy and a role model student. He tries hard to act like "Charlie". He always demonstrates self-control.

Well it's back again this year. Your child will earn a FREE personal pan pizza from Pizza Hut when he/she turns in his/her completed October Book Log that was sent home at the first of the month. In order to earn a pizza you have to have read 20 books this month. <br /><br />The log must be turned in by the last day of each month. Pizza Hut will not allow us to give coupons in November for October, unless your child is absent on the last day of the month.<br /><br />You may turn in the completed log whenever you've read all 20 books. <br /><br />Book-it runs from October to March. If you complete the log all six months you will be an All-Star Reader for an extra reward. <br /><br />Happy Reading!<br />The more you read...<br /> the better you get!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8155990505191898264-1560378480740006021?l=blairkindergarten.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Mrs. Bliair's Kindercatshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00820079884494159110noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8155990505191898264.post-63244856721391084882008-10-21T12:04:00.004-05:002008-10-21T12:07:40.967-05:00Don't forget that we have a meeting scheduled for the afternoon of October 23rd to discuss your child's progress.

The kids were so well behaved and we couldn't have asked for a prettier day. I have to say that it was the best field trip I've been on in my 11 years of teaching. It was actually scary how smoothly things ran. We were complemented on the having the students wear red shirts. It really helped us keep up with our group. Please check out our slide show. You couldn't have wiped any of our smiles off. I hope you enjoy watching it!<br /><br />Special thanks to Mrs. Wilson and Miss Temples for assisting us on our trip.
