I hope everyone had a fantastic holiday. I am not sure I am ready to get back into the swing of things just yet, but it seems that everything is gearing up to go whether I am ready or not.
Firstly, the next badge the girls chose to work on is "computer expert". Fortunately for me, maybe not so much for you, there will be lots of work to be done at home in which they will need help. In. order to earn the patch, they will need access to a computer and they will need printing capability. Please let me know ASAP if that will be a problem. I will make arrangements for them to come over and use my computer to do their "homework". One of the tasks the girls will be doing is using a drawing program/website to create a picture. I will send home iron-on transfer paper for you to print the picture. (I will send more clear instructions home with the girls on Monday.) They will bring their printed picture to the next meeting on January 28. At that meeting, the girls will (with much assistance) iron their pictures onto a mousepad. If you have any recommendations for good drawing programs/websites that are kid/user friendly, please leave it in the comment section on the blog.
Secondly, we will be handing out Cookie Order Forms on Monday. Cookie "Go Day" is not until Saturday, January 12. Girls are on their honor not to start selling until 9:00 a.m. on Saturday, January 12. In order to receive a cookie order form, you must first sign the permission slip. I will have permission slips at the meeting. If you are not planning to pickup your girl on Monday, please let me know when/where I can meet up with you to get it signed ans get you your order form before Saturday.
If anyone knows of sites for drawing/creating pics, please send out the link to everyone.
ReplyDeleteI listed quite a few on the handout that I sent home. 1 of my copies fell off the printer and I didn't realize it until after I got to the meeting, so someone didn't come home with the handout to go along with the iron-on transfer paper. I tasked I would email the handout and I cannot remember who I told, I will post a copy on here tomorrow!
