Bits & Pieces

We have early dismissal today and inservice this afternoon. That causes schedule changes so I find myself with a spare half hour - plenty of time to tell you what we've been up to. After last weekend's snow it was pleasant to see sunshine and warmer weather. Yesterday, besides being April Fool's Day was read a thon day here at school. Marcus McIntosh from KCCI morning news was here to read to students (we'll be on tv sometime between 5:00 am and 7:00 am Friday) and our principals all kissed a goat to help the kids celebrate raising $6000 for Jump Rope for Heart. It was also pajama day for the kids. Tuesday staff dressed as their favorite book character. Excitement, excitement!! We went to dinner at Greg and Chelsey's Tuesday night and I thought of Sherrie because Dan stepped in dog poo going to the door.
Tomorrow is another day of inservice and I get to visit a school in West Des Moines with a group of other teachers. Some teachers are going to the Iowa Reading Conference. middle school and high school teachers are doing parent teacher conferences. Looking forward to a quiet weekend -
