Week of February 19

Tuesday Schedule:  Week 2, Day 2

Upcoming Events and Special Notes:
Parent Teacher Conferences on Sunday, February 19 and Monday, February 20 will be student/teacher-led!  Just as a typical conference, you will come for your scheduled conference time, meeting in my classroom, where we will celebrate growth and discuss goals; the only difference is that your student and I are partnering up to guide you through the conference together!  Your student has been preparing for the conference, and is excited to lead, and I will be there to help guide them through the conference if needed, add my additional comments, and answer questions you may have.

The new SpellingCity list has been updated.  Even though we do not have school on Sunday and Monday, we will still take our Spelling Test on Thursday.  If your student wants to start practicing over the weekend, the lists are there!
