Picture book election day

Hello,

Great day today.  The class did very well running an election.  Thank you so much to author Fran Hodgkins for being absolutely fantastic.  She spoke to the entire school.  She shook hands at the polls.  She ate lunch with many in our class.  She donated a bunch of her books to our class.  She gave signed copies of Andre to three of her biggest supporters in the school.  I can't say enough about what she did to make this a special day.  And her book crushed If I Built a Car 432-175. 

I just got out of a team meeting and now am running to see Paul Tough, author of How Children Succeed, in Portland. 

The field trip in cancelled again.  Sorry.  I'll let you know the new date when I know. 

I forgot to give out parent/teacher conference sign up slips.  Long day.  You'll get one tomorrow.

I've got to run.  The whole fourth grade team is attending!  I think that's great.

Good night,

Mr. Shea
