Curriculum Night / Media

Families of Room 31~

Just a few reminders:

1.  Media is on Tuesday.  Each media session the children may check out TWO books.  One book must be appropriate to the student's reading level and I usually approve the choice.  The second book is a book of choice.  We have had many discussion about "quality literature" recently.  Our goal is that hte students throughout the year try various genres and authors.

2.  CURRICULUM NIGHT - Tuesday, September 19th at 6:30.  I hope to see everyone Tuesday night.  I will be reviewing the 4th grade curriculum and expectations as well as some of the routines of our classroom.  There will also be a sign up for parent conferences.  Although we have ONE parent conference day on Thursday, Nov. 9th, I will be holding conferences on alternative dates also.  I want the students to join us for the conference so, it takes longer than the standard 15 minutes speed version.  Many of the alternative dates will be before school / after school.  Fee free to sign up at one of the few slots on conference day or choose an alternative date / time.  Just make sure if is a time / day that both you and your child is able to attend.

3.  THANK YOU - I'd like to reach out and think our families for their generous contribution of hand sanitizer / cash for the Hurricane Harvy victims.  The school in general boxed up six full boxes of supplies and raised close to $400.  What a great reinforcer for the students to actively live - "Helping Others!" 

Looking forward to meeting everyone tomorrow night!
