Where has November gone?

It has been a month! We must do better in December. Do you notice what is new on the blog? What are some things we can post about? Would someone like to write a post about Three Kings' Day? Kwanzaa? Christmas? Help me kids!

Here is a cute thing to do on cold evenings! Have fun!
Home Sweet Home
Here is another fun thing to do.
Practice tough vocabulary words and donate rice!

Clementine!

Hey kids!
We've only just begun Clementine by Sara Pennypacker and I know you are loving it. I decided to see if there were more Clementine books - and there are! Here is a list of the Clementine books:

Clementine (first book)
Talented Clementine (second)
Clementine's Letter (third - available in April 2008)

I'll try to get copies of them for us to read. Look for them at the public library!

Happy weekend! Hope to see you at the Fall Festival on Saturday!
Love,
Mrs. B

For Parents...

Hi Parents!

So sorry a newsletter didn't make it on Monday. I'm sure you've heard about my weekend mishap. If not, read the post below. It makes doing everything much more difficult.

Here is some important information for you.

Picture money is due by Monday, 10/22.

AR Goals are in each student's agenda. Instead of a points goal, we are having a percent correct goal and a # of tests per week goal. Look for an AR print out on Friday that lists all the tests your child took this week. It will have a sticker on it - Met Goal(s) or Did Not Meet Goal(s).

Conferences are this week. Thanks for those parents who have come to discuss their child with me! I look forward to meeting with everyone. If you have not yet scheduled a conference, please get in touch with me ASAP.

A new newsletter WILL come home this Friday, October 19th. Thanks for your continued support!
