I am back at home!

Dear first grade kids,

Today is Sunday, July 31.  I am sorry I am a few days late writing to you.  I have been at the beach with some teacher friends that I used to work with.  It was a lot of fun!  Tomorow will be the first day of August.  I think July went by really fast.  Do you think so?  School will be starting in a little more than a month!  I just bought the BEAR books for the new kindergarten kids at the store today.  I miss you guys!

Love, Mrs. Prowse ☺

Omaha

Dear kind kids,
Today is Saturday, July 23, 2011. This week I have been in Omaha, Nebraska visiting family. You would not believe how hot it is there! One day the heat index was 124 degrees! And there is high humidity which makes your skin feel sweaty and sticky all the time. It also stays hot all night long! Sometimes it is hotter at night in Omaha than it is during the day in Oregon. It was a lot of fun seeing my family. We went bowling and played lots of games! Kids in Omaha start school in two weeks. I can't wait to start school so I can see all of you again!!
Love, Mrs. Prowse

Teachers go to school, too!

Dear first grade friends,
Today is Saturday, July 16. I have been in Las Vegas this week at the national kindergarten conference. I went to a lot of classes that taught me some new ways to teach kindergarten. I had a lot of fun! One interesting thing I saw was a living statue. A man had on a white robe and hat and his face was painted white and he stood as still as could be! I thought it was a real statue! Have a great week!
Love, Mrs. Prowse

I have been busy!

Dear Girls and Boys,

Today is Saturday, July 9, 2011.  I hope you all have been well this last week!  Did you get to watch fireworks on the 4th of July?  I went camping at the beach!  We drove out onto the beach and watched the fireworks from there.  It was really fun!!  Cruzer loves running in the sand!  When we first went on the beach, he ran in circles around me and Mr. Prowse!  It was funny when we got home he was SO tired!  Are you working on your math and writing papers?  First grade will be easier if you do!  Have a great week my friends!  Love, Mrs. Prowse

Anniversary

Hi Boys and Girls!

Today is Friday, July 1, 2001.  I am sorry this is so late today.  Today is my anniversary.  I have been married to Mr. Prowse for 16 years!  And do you know what is funny?  Mrs. Graham's anniversary is today also!  She has been married to Mr. Graham for 26 years!  Mr. Prowse rode his bicycle in a race last Sunday.  Cruzer and I had a lot of fun watching him!  A motorcycle went past and Cruzer started barking and wanted to chase it, but it was a good thing I had a tight grip on his leash!  I saw a few students at Costco yesterday and it really made me miss school and seeing all of you every day!  I hope you are having a wonderful and restful vacation!

Love, Mrs. Prowse ☺
