I hope you had a great three day weekend. I saw several Achieve families at the Salmon Festival in Oroville. Such nice weather we will have this week. Remember to label all jackets and sweat shirts and even lunch boxes. I try to have them all end up in back packs. If you are looking for a missing sweat shirt, it might be in the "lost and found bench" by the soccer field. 

This week What is the difference between a rule and a law. Ask your 1st grader and see what they say. This is the topic of our week. We will talk about the consequences too. Can consequences be good?

I hope everyone had a great weekend. I had a chance to take my 8 year old white water rafting. Wow, what an experience. Yes, we did flip the raft. We had a blast. It reminded me how important and valuable it is to schedule in family time and relationship building with your kids while they are little.
