We had our first art infusion lesson and the results are beautiful. Be sure to check out the artwork hanging outside the classroom inspired by Monet's water lily paintings. I really appreciate the art infusion volunteers and the students loved the whole process. The next art infusion training for volunteers is Tuesday at 6:30 pm.
I have been working on collecting work samples to share with you at Parent Conferences next week. If you haven't had a chance to sign up you can call the office and they will share the available times. I look forward to meeting with everyone! We have a spirt day this Friday - College Day! Students can wear gear and/or colors celebrating their favorite colleges. We also have an all school celebration for collecting enough Gull tickets to reach the next line in our collection box. The last half hour of the day will be dedicated to a whole school Flop and Read. Students can bring a stuffie friend (must fit in their backpack) to read with. We will be filling the hallways with readers on Friday! In writer's workshop students finished our Small Moments narrative unit. They chose one of their stories to revise, edit, rewrite, illustrate and publish. I will be sharing their final piece at conferences. Students will also have a chance to record themselves reading their story and adding it to their See Saw journal. Your child will be bringing home the drafts of their other stories this week too. Upcoming Dates Spirit Day - College Day Friday, November 16 Flop and Read Friday, November 16 1:45 pm Conferences - No School Monday, November 19 - 20
