Tips for Increasing Your Kid's Attention

Every week, I try to either attend a webinar or read a few articles on topics that interesting educationally.  I sometimes weave these into interactions with different families, discussions with other teachers or share some specific ideas with all of you.

Six Engaging Ways to Help Children Pay Better Attention is a short article that I thought would encourage you and even remind you of some simple things you can do to increase your child's attention.  The article is focused on young children but I think that it applies to all children (and often adults!).  I hope that you enjoy the read.  :)

Email Frustrations

Hi everyone,

It seems as though I'm having trouble getting information out to people as I was sick for a week, helping the school with their information booth at Missions Fest and then having issues with my emails.

My inbox - each day!!!

If you are waiting for a response from me, or have not heard some information that you are looking for, please forgive me.  I'm trying to figure out why this is happening.  I'll try to keep you in the loop here and hopefully some of my emails are actually getting through...

For those of you whose kids are doing FSAs, please remember that the closing date is quickly approaching - February 17.  After this date, the online access will no longer be available.  Please let me know when your child has finished their FSAs.  Also, please return their completed booklets (with the written portions) in the included envelope address to the school as soon as they are completed.  They must arrive at the school office by the end of February.  Thank you so much for doing this!

Blessings everyone!
