Classroom News and Reminders
I am sure you already know this, but your children are ROCKSTARS! I have really been impressed with how well the students have adapted to wearing masks and to staying social distanced. We do take mask breaks and I give reminders on occasion, but overall they are doing an amazing job. I am so proud of them!
Attestation Forms- Thank you for leaving the attestation forms clipped to the front of the assignment books. I glance at them each morning to see if they are filled up and change them out when needed. Please continue to complete them each morning.
Field Trips- Several of the students have asked me if we will be going on any field trips this year. I honestly don't have an answer for them. I have no idea what the future holds. Until we figure it out, I would love to take some virtual field trips. If you work some place that is exciting or have an awesome hobby that you would like to share, please let me know. I would love to set up a time for you to take our class or the whole third grade on a field trip with you.
Halloween Snacks- Thank you to all of the parents that volunteered to send in Halloween snacks this week. The kids are going to love getting a special treat each day!
Parent Conferences- Please click on the link below to sign up for a parent conference. I times available for remote conferences, as well as in-person conferences. Let me know if you can't find a time that works for you. I look forward to speaking with each of you about your child's progress.
