"Book-It" and Conferences

Wow!! What a busy and exciting week! The student sure were fired about about Halloween! I hope everyone is safe and has fun tomorrow. Don't eat too much candy!!!

Today a blue calendar went home. This is our new reading incentive. In the past, you might remember we've done Book-It. Well, Pizza Hut wasn't able to do it this year so we found a new reading incentive. Reading must go on!!! Please have your child read each night, or as often as possible. Record those minutes on the calendar. If your child brings home books from me, Mrs. Surface, or Mrs. Foster those reading minutes can go onto the calendar. At the end of the month sign the calendar and return it to school with your child. If your child meets the reading goal for the month he/she will earn a free slice of pizza from Casey's. If your child returns EVERY month's calendar and meets all the reading goals I will give those students a pizza party for lunch!!!!! I will be sending home reading calendars home through March. Happy reading!

Another reminder...parent-teacher conferences are next week. I cannot wait to meet with each of you! Report cards were sent home on Thursday so I will discuss those with you as well as your child's results from MAPs testing and DIBELS. If you are unable to make your conferences time, please let me know or let the school know. Hopefully everyone can stay healthy we we are able to meet next Tuesday and Thursday.
