Parent Teacher Conference Sign Up

FALL FROLIC:
Thank you to those of you who sent money in to help with the Fall Frolic basket, volunteered, or attended Fall Frolic. We raised over $6,000 for A.Z. Kelley! Thank you for making it a success!

READING & BOOK-IT:
Make sure your child is reading nightly, filling out their log, and coloring their pumpkins. 

Homework Help:
Please go over your child's homework with them daily. I have several students who are not completing their homework, several struggling with spelling words, and several struggling with Math facts. Please go over each of these with your child every night and listen to them read out loud. The work at home with parents is one of the biggest keys to success for your child. The students who are working at home nightly with parents are making the greatest gains in class.

CLASS PICTURE DAY:
Tomorrow is class picture day. Your child does not have to wear SSA, but please make sure they are dressed appropriately. Also, an order form was sent home before Fall Break. Please make sure that you send this in tomorrow if you wish to purchase a class picture.  

READING & BOOK-IT:
Your child will have a new 100 Club Reading Log in their folder today along with a Book-It Calendar. Your child will color in the pumpkin on the days they read 20 minutes out loud and you will initial beside the pumpkin each day. The students who read every day will receive a coupon for a FREE personal pan pizza from Pizza Hut. Then, please log the books they read on their 100 Club Reading Log. 25 books need to be read by the end of this 9 weeks. It will be counted as a grade. 

Fall Frolic Basket:
You will receive a note in your child's folder today about Fall Frolic. It will be next Friday, October 24th from 6-8pm. We need your help with several things. Each grade level has to contribute a basket for the silent auction. The 2nd grade team is doing a book basket to promote literacy and we will need $2.00 from each student to purchase the books and fun goodies for the basket. If you have new books you would like to donate as well, you can send those in before next Monday. 

P.T.A.:
Please join P.T.A. today. I believe we only need about 20 more families to reach our goal to be able to wear jeans every Friday. Please send in your $10 today! Mrs. Dunn would love to start that this Friday (and I would too!).
