-If you don’t mind to share with me some great pictures/videos of your kids doing in assembly or for the performance at DSU, please send it to me via e-mail. I will post them on the website as well.
-The Chinese Readers will be sent home today and should be returned Friday. Please read the detailed notes attached to it.
-We are running out of pencil already. If you can donate some boxes of pencils, it will be greatly appreciated.
-I start a Chinese rewarding chart starting this semester to encourage our kids to use more target language in class; once they have 20 checks they can redeem: a lunch with me; a gift; or bring a stuffed animal for a day. It is going on very well. I need some donations like stuffed animals, erasers, notepads or anything you feel that is appropriate little gifts to our kids as a reward. Thank you for your support! Our kids are amazing!
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you.
