Mrs. Clark's

It is time to CHAT about your child! Here is the LINK to sign up for conferences. I will not hold conferences on Monday, Oct 14 because I will be traveling home from trip.

Homework is brought back every Wednesday with their library books. The kids get classroom money to spend in our store-please help them remember to bring the plastic baggie back with their homework marked off (colored). They don’t get paid if they haven’t completed the reading and are ready to pass it off.

Upcoming Happenings in October:

• Oct 1: Picture Retakes. If your child is having picture retakes, please email me so that I can make sure they get taken 😉

Upcoming HALLOWEEN PARTY – October 31. Please make sure you have given permission for your child to have treats throughout the year during parties, activities, and testing. Here is the LINK. Details about this party coming soon……..

Selling starts on Monday, September 16th! All details are included in this video. Spooky Speedster prizes can be claimed on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8:00-8:25 in front of the library. Packets are to be turned in on Wednesday, September 25th. All other prizes will awarded shortly after the fundraiser has ended. Happy selling!

We are always talking about time in our classroom. “What time is recess?” and “How much longer until lunch?” are BIG QUESTIONS-haha! It would be VERY helpful if the kids could practice this life skill at home. Any chance you get, please help them practice reading time using a traditional clock with arms. There are several cute videos on youtube you can watch together to help with their practice.

Our class reward system uses plastic money. Students will earn amounts that will total about $5 before being able to spend it at our class store. I pass out pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, half dollars, and one dollar bills. Students earn money by preforming various tasks throughout the day. Any chance you can take to help them recognized coins and their value would be amazing. Beginning this week, their earnings will be sent home with their weekly homework. Please help them count their coins and send their total written down the next week.
