thursday unity and parent-teacher conferences

woo hoo! you have got to check out unity today for great sales and new november kits (kit of the month AND scrapbooking). while you are doing that, i will be teaching and then staying all night for parent-teacher conferences. it's nice to talk to parents about their first grade peanuts. sometimes i share my OWN experience as a child about parent teacher conferences. i was in 2nd grade and my dad came home and i was all excited to hear how awesome my teacher said i was.

so my DAD said something to the effect of this..."your teacher said you are doing great in everything. she had one concern though. she said you are farting too much in class and she wants it to stop NOW." omg! i was freaking out and defending myself and my dad just laughed and laughed. so now i have played that joke on my own kids and told the parents of my students to try that one as well. THANKS DAD! :)
