A letter of apology...

Disorganized Boy misplaced his homework. And by misplaced I mean he lost his whole lab journal, claiming he had put it in the class box last period. How many times did I tell him to get the data from his lab partner so he could finish the report? Two or three. When I finally sent him to Wall Street (Friday after school when kids have to do homework they missed during the week), he gave the proctor the same story. She made him write me a note of apology. It is so adorable that I have to share it. (he is in 8th grade...I've kept the spelling, etc, the same...)

Ms. Book
I am sorry about my paper and will take better care of them in the future. I have tried to do the most I can on this sheet, and I hope you will accept it. I am responsible for my work and won't let it happen again. I, Disorganized Boy, will do the best I can to pass your class. My sincere apologizies.
It is also true that I am very clumsy and misplace my work. I will not lose my homework anymore. Oh, I just wanted you to know I'm lazy and I'm trying to break that habit. i want to make up all of my missed work if its okay at set amounts and times. I am going to do my best to do my work sorry once again.
Sincerely,
Disorganized Boy

I hope he can pass for the year...it is midterm and he is boasting an impressive 35%...
He really is a sweet kid, just so disorganized and so spacey!
