Days after school starts, Wayne tells me that in 5th grade the kids can bring electronics to use as a resource to get on something called Study Island, that will quiz them on their knowledge about subjects. He had told Hadley she could take the tablet...but it wasn't really the tablet she was after. He said, you could see her disappointment instantly, when he offered the tablet...she saw this as her in to get a phone. The next day I was handed a typed version of the below, I wish I had taken pictures of it....in her reasons she said that if she was staying with someone and "if" she missed me she would have a phone to call me, ummm way to persuade me there Hads. Knowing how independent you are, I won't wait for the phone to ring. I made some "suggestions" to her typed version and this was the result...she may not have to wait until the end of 5th grade as previously planned, but we aren't running out for that purchase yet.
I made her take the below to her writing teacher and she came home and let me know, "my teacher said if she was my parent, she would buy me a phone, she thought it was that persuasive."
Ummm...she can totally have you...totally not...well.....
