WOW! Was it just me or was this week loooooong and slooooooow? But we made it! This week we focused on putting things in chronological order, position prepositions, and reviewing our nocturnal animals. Next week we will be doing review of the whole unit to prep for our summative assessment! Once again I’ve got a TON to get through so let’s jump into it!
- REPORT CARDS!! They are coming home in the orange folders today!! Inside the envelope you will find: a letter to parents and the PYP unit review that includes comments from me and Mrs. Little, the report card with final grades, standardized test reports (math CBM and reading), ESOL letter (when applicable), and the language proficiency in German report. Our upcoming conference is a perfect time to go through the report card specifics, but if you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask!! All the documents inside the envelop are yours! Please sign and date by Q1 and return the envelope! Either on Monday in the orange folder/agenda or at our conference!
- PT Conferences/Early Dismissal!! All next week is early release!! We finish each day at 12! If you haven’t signed up for a conference yet, I highly encourage it especially if you are concerned about something you see on the report card! Sign up here! Also just a reminder that I will not be here Wed, Thur, Friday of next week for my sisters surgery. As much as I would like to be on my email like a hawk I may not be able to check it during those days. Make sure you are writing Frau Christin as well so that she knows what’s going on!
- Martinstag!! Here is the link to the song we are singing for our Martinstag performance! We have listened to it all this week and will be learning it in more detail next week. Play it at home or in the car and see how much they already know! “Herbst”
- Letter Writing!! Our kindness ambassadors are asking for every class to write some letters to the troops! Since it isn’t something I can do in class I figured that it might be a fun at home project for y’all. Each letter should be heartfelt, handwritten, original, and free of any political statements. They must be 8.5×11 paper or smaller, no glue, tape, staples, cardboard, glitter, or stickers, NO CONSTRUCTION PAPER, only 1 page, and no greeting cards or photos. The kiddos should say something nice and positive and maybe a picture. The idea is to make the soldier open the letter and feel happy! Send these in if you decide to do them and I will make sure they get where they need to be 🙂
- Fall Giving Campaign!! This is the school-wide fundraising event! The goal is for 100% participation from each class! If EVERY family from our class donates just 1 dollar our class will win an ice cream party!! You’ll find more information on the home blog page.
- Book Fair!! In the orange folders you will also find a Book Fair wish list! As a class we went to the book fair today and the kiddos picked out their own books they found interesting. As a parent you may visit the book fair next week (during conferences) to purchase things! You may also send money in for October 17th when we will be returning to the book fair to buy things!
Alright that’s it for this week! Happy Weekend to all y’all! 😀
