I like rewards and recognition for a job well done. I my classroom I give several extra credit opportunities. Our school uses Accelerated Reader (A.R.). I think it's a great tool and I encourage the students to read and take tests. I give each child a goal of 15 points per 9 weeks. If they can meet this goal with a 75% or better I give them an extra 100 in reading, a certificate, and a little treat!
Since I teach at a private school we can have devotional time, prayer time, and talk about God. I also give them a Bible verse each week. If they can correctly write at least 6 out of the 9 I give them a drop a grade in their lowest subject. That's pretty big too!
Bitty loves to hunt and he's dying to kill a big buck.
He is my child that NEEDS that one on one time.
Flies. Huge flies. I don't know why they like to get in the boys' bathroom windows, but they do. I read that putting a bar of Irish Spring Original Soap in the window helps. It did!!!! They don't like the smell.
A cat adopted us. I don't like cats. Sorry if you do. I will, however, be glad to buy cat food if it'll each some critters.
Ford went to see this with a friend and loved it.
Patty's mom's house was featured on Home Town a few weeks ago. It was fun seeing her on TV.
My babies walking to school.
Annie had a fun playdate after gymnastics and a special stop by Mac & Charlies for ice cream.
At the end of a long day.....
These sweets girls love to give hugs.
Short man problems....when you can't reach the microwave.
Annie loves to play with my old little cars. I might have sat down there and played with her.
We signed her up for city league basketball. I'd say she has a long way to go. She's trying though. She keeps those hands up on offense and defense.
And she's the smallest one on her team.
All 3 of my boys killed a deer.
Ford's peewee basketball season has concluded. He really played well and had a good time.
