Sense of Wonder

I just saw this quote, and I love it! Wonder.... An inquisitive mind is one of perfection.  I love watching all the "wonder" happen daily with our kids.  It inspires me.  It makes me want to be the best teacher I can be for the wondering minds who want to know... Who want to grow..  I love what I do!!

Reading Makes the Mind SHINE

Please make sure your child is reading at least 20 minutes a night.  I check their Reading Minutes daily.  If they bring in their signed reading log every day they earn a "Sweet Treat" at the end of the week!  They also get to participate in Fun Friday which is extra recess for the students who read daily as well as finish all their stations throughout the week.  If they do not finish their "must do" stations for that day you will see it come home with your child for homework. 

Thank you for all you do to help them be successful!  I love working with you for the success of your child.  They mean the world to me!!!  

Mrs. Roberts :)

Meet Mrs. Roberts

Thank you so much for sharing your children with me!  I really enjoyed watching them unpack their "All About Me" bags.  It has been a fantastic few weeks getting to know each other, as we become a school family.  I love waking up each day knowing I get to see them!

When I shared my "All About Me" bag I brought in some pictures of me as a first grader.  

I brought in some of my work too to share with them.  
I love snakes and rats.  I grew up with every animal in my home which has given me a love for all animals.  We had dogs, ferrets, turtles, tarantulas, rats, hamsters, snakes, iguanas, fish and even a rabbit who was like our dog using the doggie door to go outside.  :) 

I also LOVED being on the soccer field.  Playing soccer as a girl was the highlight for me.  Now I love being the cheering mom on the sidelines watching my own children and my husband while he coaches them.   
Today, many of my loves are the same.  They also include...

Favorite food: Gummy Bears, red licorice and artichokes 
Favorite color: Yellow
Favorite hobby:  Reading, gardening and spending time with my family
Favorite drink:  Coffee
Favorite store: Hobby Lobby -  I love being crafty.  My favorite thing to do is to turn trash to treasures!  Garage sales, second hand stores, antiques.  Love them all!
Favorite dessert:  Anything sweet!  I love sweets!!  Cookies, candy, ice cream...

Thank you again for sharing your sweet children with me!  I am so excited for the year ahead!
