We had a delightful week in Room 3! :) The rain certainly did not put a damper in our spirits; with today's den rally, we certainly made our own sunshine.
Important Information About School Pictures:
Fall pictures will be taken this Wednesday, October 3rd. I sent home information about pictures in last week's Thursday folder and I sent home a reminder in yesterday's Thursday folder. This will be a day for individual pictures only; a whole-class picture will be taken in the spring. Following are some guidelines to help facilitate your picture order/purchase:
- If possible, please order your child's pictures online. It's the fastest, easiest, and most convenient way to order your child's pictures. If you order online, you do not need to send anything to school with your child on Picture Day!
- If you are not ordering online, please fill out the payment envelope, enclose your payment, and send it to school on Picture Day. Your payment envelope must include your child's name, my name, your "look" (or background) selection, your package selection, and your payment.
- Picture purchase is optional.
Please Sign-Up for a Conference!
Parent/Teacher conferences will be held at the end of the first quarter. I am using Sign-Up Genius to schedule conferences. I sent out the Sign Up Genius today via email. You can also sign-up for a conference time by clicking HERE. If you are unable to attend a conference on one of the dates/times listed, please send me an email to make alternate arrangements.
First Quarter Interim Progress Reports:
First Quarter Interim Progress Reports ("interims") will be issued Wednesday, October 3rd. If your child receives an interim, it will be emailed to you on Wednesday, October 3rd using the email address on file in your ParentVue account. You can update and/or verify your email address by logging into your ParentVue account. If you are unable to access your ParentVue account, please contact our school office. (I'm sorry I am not able to help you with this--it needs to come from the main office).
Focus Areas for the Coming Week:
- Reading-We will learn to use our reading partners to help us solve hard/tricky words
- Writing- We will bring small moment stories to life by using mentor texts
- Math-We will finish our patterns/sorting unit
- Social Studies- We will discuss Christopher Columbus and Columbus Day
Please let me know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns.
Donal, Raleigh, and I are heading to Pennsylvania to visit my family and attend our town fair. I am very excited to share this tradition with all of them again! I have been going to our town fair since I was a little girl. :) I hope you all enjoy your weekend as well!
