Post Conference Follow Up

A HUGE thanks to all of the parents who attended Parent Teacher Conferences on Wednesday and Thursday. 10 minutes is not always enough time to discuss everything. If you think you need additional time to meet with any of your child's teachers, please email him/her directly.

Spelling


There is no spelling test the week of October 22nd. Students should begin studying for the week of October 29th.

The list is always available on www.spellingcity.com/squish



Reading Logs

Students are required to read for 100 minutes outside of school each week. They must complete a reading log and return it to me each Monday. Reading logs must contain the book the read, the number of minutes they read for, and a parents signature. If the student has misplaced a reading log, he/she can write it on a piece of paper.

Beginning Oct. 15th, I am keeping the reading logs that are handed in. This will help me conference with each student about their reading habits, RC quizzes, and book reports.
