Quick Announcements...

Hello!
A couple quick announcements...

The parent letter and sign-up form were sent home today with the children!! Yay!!

I have decided on and ordered a book called Celebrate! It's Cinco de Mayo! by Janice Levy for the fourth and final Mexico book.

One requirement that I still needed to do for the honors program was complete a formal presentation that is 20 minutes long and includes a Powerpoint or Smartboard presentation. You have to organize it, invite the audience, and let the director of the Honors Program know ahead of time because he must attend. Anyway, I was supposed to present at WRS' PTA meeting in Febraury. However, the guest speaker for January just cancelled and I got bumper up. So, I need to prepare for this presentation and prepared for next Thursday night!! Ahhh! That's so soon...oh well, I'll have to get it done : )

No news from colleges is good news...that's the angle I'm taking right now : )
Talk to you soon!

  1. One 4 letter word seems to fit you - BUSY. Take care and I pray you hear back what you need to soon.

  2. I agree with Lee, you're totally busy!

    You'll have a great presentation ready before next Thursday, and do a great job. :)

  4. I'm Janice Levy, the author of "Celebrate! It's Cinco de Mayo."
    Thanks for using my book and I hope your project works out well.
    Good luck with your college decision, too.
    My website, which I'm in the process of updating, is www.janicelevy.com
    Perhaps you'll see another title which will interest you.
    (particularly liked your "frazzled" photos; something we can all relate to!)

  5. Lol Lee! Yes, I'd have to agree that I am busy. I think reading in the evenings is about the only thing I have left that keeps me sane!
    Thanks!

  7. Hello Janice!
    Thank you so much for visiting my blog. This is very cool! I've never had the author of any of my books stop by before, so it's very exciting for me. Your book looks excellent and I am excited to see everyone's feedback from it.

    Thank you with the good luck. I've heard from 2 out 4 still...can't wait to hear from the rest!!

    I just had an idea pop into my head about how very cool it would be to have interviews with the authors of the books on my blog. I guess I'm thinking about in Seekerville and how they do that. It would be very cool though...

    Anyway, thank you again for taking the time out of your(what I can assume is a) busy schedule to read what I've written. I'll be sure to check out your website!
    Stop by anytime!!

  8. THanks Mrs. Haynes!

    I'm excited to show the PTA what I've done, but nervous about finishing on time! I'm planning on staying after tomorrow, Friday, and Monday at WRS to make a Smartboard presentation because I just think it looks so much better that way.
    Talk to you soon!
