Hey there, wonderful supporters of Room 311! We have survived the first month and a half of school, and I CAN'T WAIT to see what the rest of the year has to offer. The end of the first nine-weeks is approaching us at a rapid rate, so here are some important dates and reminders that you should have for the fun filled month of October!
Also, some students discussed potentially participating in the talent show AS A CLASS! I think this would be a wonderful idea, but would need to know what the parents think as well, since you are the ones who would need to pick them up from the practices. I will be sending home a note in their yellow folders asking for feed back, if you could return this ASAP that would be fantastic!!
R E M I N D E R S :
Yellow Folders - Your Thinker will be bringing home many graded assessments in the upcoming weeks, keep an eye out if you want to get a sneak peek on what to expect on their report cards!
Social Media - If you haven't followed our classroom on Twitter or Instagram, please check it out! It's a great way for the kids to share what we're doing and get some practice in a safe, monitored place.
PICTURES! - Please, please, please! try to send in your child's favorite picture of themselves!! It really is a great way to build a classroom community. If you can supply a frame with it, it would be greatly appreciated! If you can't, no worries. I have extras and would be more than happy to get one, so don't let it stop you from sending a picture!
