Weekly Highlights
November 11th, 2017
Happy Veteran’s Day to you all. Hoping that you have an opportunity today to reflect with your children on the sacrifices that are made daily for our freedom. A huge and warm “thank you” to the men and women who have and/or who are currently serving. What a great week we had in Room 107! I’d like to share a few highlights with you:
- Donuts with Dad- What a special time to get to bring dad into school and enjoy breakfast with him. Hopefully you all were able to cherish that special family time together. Thank you to all who participated!
- Persuasive Writing- Last week we finished up our persuasive writing. This week will consist of individual conferences to grade the writings. You should see these trickling home throughout the week. I am so proud of how hard students worked on this writing. We will be starting a new, “fun” persuasive writing next. Before we do that, however, we will be using our writing block to begin preparing for our student-led conferences! We’re looking forward to sharing with you all the many ways your children are glowing and growing.
- Leader of the Week– This week’s leader of the week is Connor. Connor is so sweet. He loves basketball and he adores his family. His favorite food is a delicious burger and he finds many ways to make us laugh. He is such a special part of our classroom community. We are so lucky to have him!
