Dear Attention Givers,

What we learn in school is so rich, so important, and so life changing that it requires your full attention.

We string letters into sounds into words into sentences into paragraphs that create meaningful stories about our human lives in the world, and then we try to create our own. We use shapes and numbers to create order out of the unordered world of nature. We find and name patterns in the language that we use and learn how to use it in new and challenging ways.

This is not easy stuff. This is not something that you can just easily pick up. It requires your full attention, your full effort, and a lot of thought. Be sure to give it your all today.

Sincerely,

Mr. Heimbuck
