**PARENT HOMEWORK**The lizards laughed when I told them that I was sending
home homework for the parents! Conference week is truly one of my favorite
weeks of the year, because I get to share with YOU how rewarding these past
few months have been, and the growth that your child is already showing!
Please complete the “conference homework” by Friday 10-21.
*Thanks to Dawn O’Neill and Ginger Guinther for being Proofreading Parents
last week, Dina Parker for being our Math Mania parent, Vicky Prada-Carcamo
for helping with copies and laminating, and Sandra Flores for teaching us a
lesson on pollution/recycling AND being our chaperone for our field trip!
*There are two packets being sent home this week, and the homework is going
to be getting more challenging. At NO point should your child stress over
completing these assignments! I would prefer that your child gets in the
habit of returning HW every Monday, but I understand that things happen, so
DO NOT stress over HW! I would like for everyone to attempt the “challenges”
sent home, but they are not mandatory.
*Also, in my reading groups, I send home all sorts of
differentiated “projects.” I tell the kids to turn them in “whenever they
finish.” So, if a book report comes home, it is NOT DUE THE NEXT DAY unless
they are just so excited that they feel like they have to complete it right
away…I don’t want to hinder any excitement over the reading!
*I will be at the Fall Festival this Friday…probably around 7 p.m. I’m
looking forward to seeing everyone there! Don’t forget to check out the
teacher auction tables!
*Please continue sending me schedules of extra-curricular activities if I
have NOT already attended something for your child. I WILL make it to
everyone’s activities before the year is over.
Have a wonderful week!
