Thank you to everyone who came to conferences! I really like having the time to meet parents and delve deeper into what makes each child tick.
I hope you noticed some of the heritage art projects, the book projects, and, of course, the Celebrate Board. Now it's time to send all those cool things home! I need to have everything all cleaned up so we can start our remote-operated vehicle activities. Don't forget, though--we look forward to the November Celebrate Boards!
We do need some things to come in to school right away:
We went over due dates for November this week. I reminded the class that the calendar for the year is on this website (the top of the elementary page) and nearly every due date is on the calendar. Printing out the calendar and posting it is a great strategy. Crossing things off as they get finished is another helpful strategy. And due dates are posted in the classroom as well on bright pink paper. (It's not like I try to hide them!) I encourage students to copy the dates into their 3-ring binder as well.

We do need some things to come in to school right away:
- both field trip permission slips
- $6 for the play (that goes directly to the office, not to me)
- any more book projects or heritage art projects--they are now officially late (kids owe a Kragen buck a day until they get them turned in and there's no way I'll be able to get them all fit in on Monday)
- the Market Day business expense form, which MUST be signed by a parent and turned in by MONDAY (it's officially late too)
