Hi families!  Thank you so much to everyone who helped out with the Kindness Party. We all had so much fun :)  Conferences will start this week! As a reminder, conferences are student-led, so if you have a conference scheduled with me, remember to bring your student with you. If you are not meeting with me, let me know when you would like your student to present theirs to you at home, and if they need to bring their chromebook home to do it. Once it is finished, please send me an email or write me a note in their planner letting me know they have presented it to you.  We are running low on snacks for the classroom. If you are able to donate any, that would be extremely helpful. This helps students who forget to bring in a snack, since we have a long morning until lunch. Thank you!  Recorder information went home on Wednesday. All orders need to be placed by Friday, February 24th. Please contact amileham@sjschools.org with any questions.  This Week:  Monday:...

  Hi families!  Our Kindness Party will be on Tuesday at 2:00. It looks like the only thing left on the sign up sheet is a game or craft. If you have any ideas for a game or a craft, please let me know and I can set it up! If you signed up to bring a treat, please remember to make sure they are peanut and tree nut free. Same for any candy valentines you send it. Students are allowed to bring valentines, but they must bring enough for all of our students. Here is a list of class names. They can bring in their own bag or box, or I will have bags for them to take home.  Girls on the Run is starting soon! Here is some information if you would like to sign your child up.  Winter conferences will be coming up. Students have been working hard on their slides! A conference is not required, but if you would like to sign up to meet with me, here is the link . Otherwise, your student can take their chromebook home and present it to you at home.  Please let me know if you...

  Hi families! Our Kindness party will be on February 14th at 2:00.  Here  is a link for the sign up if you would like to volunteer.  I will be sending a sign up sheet for treats/games within the next couple of days. Students are allowed (but not required) to bring valentines, but they must bring enough for all 27 kids.  Here  is a list of class names. Please be mindful of what candy you send in (if you do send candy), and make sure there are no peanuts or tree nuts. If your child wants to bring a decorated box or bag, they are more than welcome to, but we will not have a contest. I will have bags for them to take home their valentines if needed.  We are still updating our student led conference slides with new goals! Winter conferences are not required, but I will be sending a sign up sheet this evening if you would like to schedule a conference with me. Otherwise, students can take their chromebook home and present their slides to you at home.  ...
