Lil Steamer Families --
I am happy to report that we had an amazing turnout for our parent/teacher conferences on Monday, November 2nd! For PK-5 grades, we had 413 of a possible 437 conferences (95%)! Thank you for connecting with your child(ren)'s teacher(s) in helping their educational journey.
As we enter changing seasons, I want to remind you to continue to promote our efforts in educating our students to wear face coverings, wash their hands often, practice social distancing, and to let us know if any symptoms develop. Our area trends with a rise in cases, so we want to do our best to protect our students, staff, families, and community.
The forecast shows great weather this weekend. I hope you all find some time to enjoy some of that sunshine :)

It is important that we encourage our children to express their feelings. Here are some ways that you can help your child learn about and express their feelings:
Identify feelings in others-Provide lots of opportunities to identify feelings in others. You might ask your child to reflect on what someone else may be feeling. Cartoons or picture books are a great way to discuss feelings and help kids learn how to recognize other people’s feelings through facial expressions.
Be a role model-Kids learn about feelings and how to express them appropriately by watching others. Show your child how you’re feeling about different situations and how you deal with those feelings.
Encourage with praise-Praise your child when they talk about their feelings or express them in an appropriate way.
Listen to your child’s feelings-Stay present and resist the urge to make your child’s bad feelings go away. Support your child to identify and express their feelings so they are heard. When feelings are minimised, they will often be expressed in unhealthy ways.
