Just for parents...

Food for thought for all of you!

Thanks for letting me be part of their lives! A big hug!
Miss Ceci

Dear Parents,
I give you back your child, the same child you confidently entrusted to my care in March. I give him back pounds heavier, inches taller, months wiser, more responsible, and more mature then he was then.Although he would have attained his growth in spite of me, it has been my pleasure and privilege to watch his personality unfold day by day and marvel at this splendid miracle of development.I give him back reluctantly, for having spent nine months together in the narrow confines of a crowded classroom, we have grown close, have become a part of each other, and we shall always retain a little of each other.Ten years from now if we met on the street, your child and I, a light will shine to our eyes, a smile to our lips, and we shall feel the bond of understanding once more, this bond we feel today.We have lived, loved, laughed, played, studied, learned, and enriched our lives together this year. I wish it could go on indefinitely, but give him back I must. Take care of him, for he is precious.Remember that I shall always be interested in your child and his destiny, wherever he goes, whatever he does, whoever he becomes. His joys and sorrows I’ll be happy to share.I shall always be his friend.

Great ideas for your holidays!

How about doing these before the year is over? Having fun is the goal, as I have always said it in this blog!
There is no reason to feel bored.....
Why don't you...?


List things you enjoyed about this school year.
List 2-5 books you plan to read this coming year.
List 10 things you plan to do this summer.
Choose a vacation spot and write an itinerary of your planned trip.
Write an acrostic for the phrase, "SUMMER FUN!"

Enjoy some more minutes in your bed
Share an activity with your brother, sister, mom or dad
Plan a nice surprise for your family for the summer
Give someone a helping hand
Invent a game and share it
Be outside playing, running or just enjoying the nice weather

See? There are some many great things to do rather than watching Tv or playing with the computer or just saying I AM BORED!

Have a super time!!!



The end of the year is here!

Dear kids and parents,

had a lot of fun
made new friends
been more patient, tolerant, responsible, hard working, attentive,

in other words, we have all grown a lot!

Have a great summer, enjoy your family and friends and use your time wisely doing the things you could not during the year.

Writing backwards? Palindrome? Playing with words is fun!

Roald Dahl decided to`create`a new language in his book, writing backwards! ESIO TROT is tortoise!!!! Can you write your name backwards? and surname? and school name?

A palindrome is something different, those are the words or phrases that in Spanish we call
' capicua'. Do you know any in Spanish? and in English?ç

Check these websites to find some! Have fun!
