"That's so cute" the principal says
"Wanna see her do something cool" I say exited knowing my mom hasn't seen this yet I go to the bored and look at sugar

"Yes miss Stephane" everyone says back soon were all headed back to our classrooms we get them back and to their seats and I decide to talk with the class then play some games i sit on my stool in the front with my podium and smile
"So kids are we all happy and okay with being back at school" I ask
"Yes miss Kar" I got back
"I'm glad now I want you to raise your hand if your excited for our feild trips" I say and every hand shoots up
"Well I'm glad now I'm gonna start a list of pepole who can't go if they are bad so we all have to be on our best behavior so we can all go okay" I say getting up and putting no feild trips for and leave some space and put it in a box
"Now are their any questions" I ask
A few hands raise
"Yes billy" I ask
"What's a permission slip" he asks
"A permission slip is a piece of paper we give your parents that asks if it's okay to take you on the class trip" I say and he nods I call on Abby
"How will we get to the field trip miss kat" she asks
"We are all gonna ride the bus there yes ally" I say happily
"Can I talk to you in the hall miss kat" alt asks neeveslt
I nod an notion for Raymond fo take over the classroom and take ally's hand going to the hall
"What is it ally" I ask
"My daddy asked me to talk to you in private he said to tell you thank you and to give you a big hug for saving me" she says and hugs me her mom talked to me yesterday her dad is deployed and her and her little brother are the only family they have left after a house fire at her grandparents house
"Well tell your daddy I say thank you so very much for giveing me such a smart girl to teach now how about we go back in and we can play games and maybe watch a movie" I suggest and she agrees I was warned about ally when she was tested to see how far she was mentally she scored 5th grade level the school system wanted to put her in 5th grade but her mother asked for her to be in kindergarten because she wanted to develop her social skills then when she had the proper social skills she could move up to challenge her so we give ally work She finishes fast then I told her she could read a book or work on a project ally likes reading so yeah
We go back in and ally sits down at her table
"Okay now do we wanna play family fude Jeopardy Kahoot or bingo" I ask
The kids shout out family fude now your probably wondering what it is it's basically a memory game for the kids in a way
"Okay first up we have ally and we have Trent please come stand up here" I say Raymond gets me the 2 buzzers I bought yesterday an pulls up the game on my computer we play a few rounds and the kids are all laughing and smiling then we go to bingo soon miss Olivia knocks on the door and asks if we're going to the cafeteria for lunch
"Raise your hand if you'd like to go to the cafeteria for lunch then come back for a movie" I say everyone raised their hands
"I guess so" I laugh she tells me I should order pizza now if I'm going to and I nod grabbing my wallet and phone and sit at my desk lets see 20 kids 2 adults I'll get 6 large pizzas and have them cut to 8 pieces Thats 48 pieces so enough for everyone to have 2 pieces plus I'll have 4 extra I know gabes mom said he could have pizza we just have to make sure to take him to the nurse afterwards for insulin I decide 3 pepperoni and 3 cheese are good and order them asking for them to be delivered to the front office Raymond gets the plates napkins gloves and juice boxes and water bottles and packs enough for everybody for lunch and I ask if anyone brought their lunch they all raise their hands I tell them to grab there lunchbox and let's head to the cafiteria I asked all the parents to only send sides with the kids since we're getting pizza hopefully they remembered I get a call since we're lining up
J: miss kat can you come to the front office please to sign for your pizza
K: oh yay yes miss Jenny I'll be right there
Raymond leads the kids to the cafiteria while I go to the office with sugar she sits next to me as I sign for the pizza and take it miss Olivia and miss Harley and lily do the same but their classes are waiting patiently in the hall to go to the cafiteria
"Did you remember plates" I ask the other teachers
"Yes" Harley says
"Yes" Olivia says
"I knew I forgot something" Miss Lilly says
"Don't worry i got extra plates Lilly and gloves if you need them" I say smiling at the girl that's my age as we walk with hot pizza to the cafiteria I notice I ordered the most pizzas out of kindergarten hm okay Raymond and I pass out pizza to all our kids then sit at the table with the teachers I set up sugars lunch and let her eat then grab a piece of pizza for myself and start munching on the cheese goodness
"I think you ordered too much" miss Olivia says
"I wasn't sure I wanted to be prepared" I say
"The kids usually only eat one slice each but you do have the biggest class so I don't blame you for ordering extra" miss Olivia says
"It doesn't hurt to have extra pizza that just means I don't have to cook dinner" I say shrugging"
"I still have to no matter if I ordered extra jace jr hates pizza" she says
"How can you hate pizza" Raymond asks
"He doesn't like the sauce he will only eat cheese bread or pasta" she says
"That's diffeent" miss Olivia says
We all chat then head back to our classrooms with our classes I ask the kids to vote on what movie we watch they could choose lelo and Stich bueaty and the beast cars or finding Nemo finding Nemo one I worked on my computer as the kids watched the movie then Raymond comes back with Gabe and gabe takes his seat as the movie starts and Raymond comes to my desk and asks what I'm doing and I show him Im writing emails and prepping some things for our feild trip I thought would be fun there's a knock on the door and I go to answer it it's miss Jenny and miss Stephane so I step into the hall
"Sorry my kids are watching a movie I don't wanna disturb them" I smile
"Aw what movie" miss Stephane says

She nods and hands them to me
"Oh I was wondering could I Do a scavenger hunt with the kids on the trip to the zoo and aquarium like make sheets for the chaperones and the kids where they have to find the animals exhibit and take a photo of the kids in front of it" I ask
"I think it's a great idea let's ask miss Olivia if all kind geraden should do it" Stephane says going to miss olivaas door and knocking she hands her the same papers saying the same thing then asking if she likes the idea of the scavenger hunt
"I like it then it helps when we do the all about my year books we talked about kat" she says nodding
"All about my year" miss Stephane asks
"Miss Kat had an idea to document the kids through kindergarten and then at the end of the year give the kids a book filled with photos and things they did through the year so they have something to remember it by" miss Olivia says
"I love that idea I knew you were a great addition to our team" miss Stephane says hugging me
"I need to get back to my kids if that's allright" I say and they agree Olivia needs to get back to hers too I go back in the room and put a kids name on each permission slip and add gabes medical form to his slips and I fill out my form and put it in a binder and label it feild trip leaving space for the permission forms I send miss Olivia and the other kindergarten teachers a copy of the animal check list I made with directions and a spot for the chaperones to put all the kids names then I grab 6 clipboards let's see if I split 20 6 ways that is 3 to 4 pepole a group if I split it 4 ways that is 5 pepole a group and if i split it 5 ways its 4 a group so I'll get 4 other chaperones that way we have 5 groups Raymond will be with me and Gabe will be in our group for sure unless his mom is a chaperone the movie finishes and we count goldfish and M&m as and eat them except Gabe he counts grapes and strawberries Raymond checks his insulin pump and it's okay then we talk about the feild trip and what we will see then it's time to go I grab the permission slips and stand at the door with sugar as parents come to collect their kids all the parents ask if they can sit for a minute here and read it then give it back to me I say yes and I explain to gabes mom she needs to fill out the medical okay form for the feild trip giving her contact info for that a few parents ask if they can be chaperones and I have exactly 4 chaperones callies mom trents mom Shelby's mom and ally's mom says either her or her husband will do it explains HES coming home Monday and is going to supprise her at school and asks if I'll help which I agree I get all the permission flips back and give the parents the itinerary that includes the feild trip rules what time we leave and chaperones should be here and what the kids should wear everyone leaves and I head to the office while Raymond packs up things I knock on miss Stephane's door
