Lunes, el 23 de febrero - Getting back to school

Today was my first day back to school since my unexpected absence, and from all that I have heard, you guys were very well behaved. I thank you all so much for your cooperation, your respect, but most of all all your thoughts, kinds wishes, and prayers for my family and myself. I did check in every now and then to make sure everything was going smoothly and I was overwhelmed at your kindness. Thank you so much!

Here's what I know for sure will happen this week:

Tuesday: We will organize and grade some of the work you completed for the substitute teacher.
Thursday: We will quiz on the Imperfect Tense
Friday: You will get a review sheet on Unit 3.1 to prepare for a unit test the following week.

Any student still interested in retaking the COMMAND TEST can attend a final tutorial either TUESDAY OR WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON and RETEST THURSDAY OR FRIDAY AFTERNOON, but I have to wrap it up the to make sure it appears on your progress report especially since this is the UIL grading period.

Thanks again for your kindness and respect during this hard time.

Hasta luego, Leno

TODAY'S AGENDA:

Conversation Challenge
No homework

My mother's passing - I need your help

Dear students,

I need your help in a really tough time in my life. This morning I learned that my mother, after many years of illness, passed away. I will probably have to be out for the week. Since any teacher absence can lead to craziness and silliness, I would like to ask you all out of respect for my mother and myself, please be on your best behavior. Do whatever work is given to you and obey whatever substitute teacher is in charge of you as well as if I was there if not better. Also, if you see someone getting out of line, please be a extension of me and encourage them to do the right thing. During this time of loss and grief in my family, I would like to know that my "kids" are the least of my worries. You are all good kids and I am proud to teach you all. Please return the care, the energy and the respect I have shown you in my instruction while I attend to my family and pay my respects to my mother.

Thank you all so much,
Love to you all,
Sra. Lenord
