As a new school year begins, what kind of student and person are you going to be? I want you all to think about that question, and think hard. School is one of few things that has a start and end - most jobs are done all year long, never ending. But YOU have a chance to make a new beginning for yourself. I don't know the fifth grade you. The chance to start over is very exciting. There are a lot of things I want to get better at as a teacher so you can learn. I have a new beginning; and so do you. Maybe you got into a little trouble, or missed some homework, or didn't give your best effort last year. I am here to tell you that's ok! But we do not make excuses, and past mistake are only 'ok' if you learn from them and make yourself better NOW. Turn in all of your homework, study harder for tests, stay out trouble, be a better friend, be a better son or daughter. The things you can get better at are endless! Make the most of your new beginning. 9:00, August 20th - your new beginning is near. What are you going to do with it. . .
