Mrs. Martinez' Santa Workshop:

Mrs. Martinez is hosting an exciting contest for the kiddos.  Students can be entered in the contest if they attend all class meetings and complete all classroom work - on time - the day it is due beginning November 30th.

The contest will last 10 school days - November 30 - December 11th.

3. At the close of school on Friday, December 11th, I will send the list of names that have met the requirements.

4. Mrs. Martinez will draw 20 names from the list. Those names will be announced on our Motivational Monday video on December 15th. A special invitation will then be sent home to the family.

On Thursday, December 17th at 5:00pm, Mrs. Martinez will have a workshop set up for students to come. They will receive a gingerbread house kit, cookies and hot chocolate.

PE Enrichment:

Remember to start with PE first thing Monday morning and head to our meet at 8:35. Mr. Sinor is asking the kiddos to come with a ball (larger than a tennis ball) that bounces to practice ball handling skills.

 

Grab & Go Bags

December Grab & Go bags will be ready for pick up from the office anytime Tuesday November 17th-Friday November 20th.  Office hours are 7:30-4:00.  Some of the items from our current grab and go bag will carry over into the December instruction.  Keep in mind that due to distance learning, I plan very far in advance.  Changes arise.  Please do not get rid of items in a grab and go just because we have a new bag.  Just add those items into the new grab and go so they will be available when we use them.  Thanks for doing a great job to be sure your kiddo is prepared.

Disguised Turkey:

Don't forget to have your kiddo bring their disguised turkey to class on Monday.

It is important that your student is able to read these words.  Please use the flashcards to review both these words and the letter names and sounds.  You can be creative and play games with the sight words and letters.  Please reach out to me if you need some ideas as to how to help your student learn these.  

    

Parent Conferences

Week of November 16-20:  Parent conference week.   

Conferences will be around 15 minutes each.  Please wait until your assigned time to log in to the classroom.  Please be on time.  I will not be able to run past your scheduled time due to other conferences.  Your child does not need to attend.  

There are no official minimum days.  SB 98 requires that we continue with the daily instructional minutes required by the state even during parent teacher conference week.  I will be assigning some activities for the students to complete during the 11:30-12:30 hour each day to remain compliant with the state's requirements.  You will find these assignments in their google classroom each day.  Thanks for your support!
