[Danhi] Volunteers with Little Kids

i think it matters what the activity is.  for instance, if you are working on reading, then having another little one in the room might be distracting.  if you are volunteering to help with a craft project, it would probably be just fine.  (at least, it would be fine with me.)   that's just my 2 cents. 



also, ms. danhi mentioned to sophia that our class has not been sending in Boxtops for Education.  The PTA has emailed several times about the contest going on currently to see which class can collect the most.   we have sent in a bunch.  some parents have no idea what these are so i thought i would explain a little more about them.  



on many products there are little rectangular "badges" that say "boxtop for education" with an expiration date on it.  for each one we turn in, the school gets 10 cents ($.10) cash money - like Campbell's soup labels when we were younger.  i have found them on a bizarre group of products, but wanted to let you know some places you can look for them:  yoplait yogurt, betty crocker products, scott paper products, green giant canned goods (multi-packs) , general mills cereals, totinos pizza.  i also bought a box of paper from officemax, and each pack of paper in the box had a boxtop on the label.    anyway, i thought this might help those who have no idea where to look for them.  happy hunting!

What do you think about volunteers bringing a student's younger sibling to class while volunteering? 


For me, I could volunteer more if I could bring Reed, Julia's 2.5 year old brother.  I imagine him having a great time working along side Julia.  Or maybe we try it and it doesn't work out. 


You make the call.  Thanks!
