9/21

To all my students, their parents and family:

My thoughts and prayers are with you in the after math of Hurricane Ike. I hope that power has been restored to most of your homes by now and that you are staying safe and cool. I look foward to seeing you on Wednesday Sept. 24 with those bright shining faces. We will began again by quickly reviewing our lessons for the first three weeks of school. We will then pick up right where we were and move on ahead to our new lessons. I can't wait to hear your stories. You have so much to tell me and so much to write about! Rest on Monday and Tuesday and I'll see you soon! You are bright shining stars!

Welcome to our first grade class! Our class is known at Klenk as the bright shining stars!

My name is Cris Finkbeiner. I am an old Ag and I am married to an old Ag class of 1979. Our two children, Emily and Sophia attend our great Klein District and hope to one day attend A&M University.

I have been teaching for 28 years and enjoy listening to children read and solve math problems.

Every child can succeed and my method of motivation is to always let them know that they are "bright shining stars."
