Nov. 27-Dec 1st CONFERENCE WEEK

 

Hello Families!

I hope you are having a wonderful holiday weekend. I have enjoyed time with my parents and girls and can't believe we are about to embark on the December holidays! 

Just a reminder that your child still needs to bring a snack and drink when we have a half day of school. As the cooler weather approaches (well...I guess it is pretty much here😆), please send your child to school with warm outdoor recess clothes such as mittens, hat and a warm jacket. Mittens are much easier for children to put on themselves and if you could have your child practice putting on their jackets independently, it would be most helpful. Here is a visual and a very short video to use if you want!

CONFERENCES: Please allow time to arrive to your scheduled conference (in our classroom) as we only have 15 minutes tops to chat. I HATE to do this, but I will have a timer to help me keep on schedule (it is REALLY hard for me to keep on track😂!). If you have a virtual conference, I will send you an email with the link to sign on. Please do not sign on too early as there might be a conference going on prior to yours! If you have not signed up for a conference, I am assuming you'd prefer not to meet at this point.
