I really enjoyed meeting with all of the parents of my students at the
conferences. Thank you so much for your feedback, your positive comments,
and your on-going support. It benefits the children when we work together,
and I feel that spirit of cooperation here at Arnold more than anywhere else
that I have taught or have visited. I feel very blessed to work with you and
your children. Thank you so much!
Many students have been reading and recording the names of these books in
their 100 Book Club booklet. I have been giving students a sticker for their
sticker chart for every five books they read. We started in October with
the "Book It" program from Pizza Hut. Students will also earn a coupon for a
free Pizza Hut personal pan pizza when they read ten books in addition to the
two stickers they will get for their sticker chart. This will continue
through March. Each student may only earn one coupon per month, but it is a
new month, so your child should be working toward December's coupon!
Thank you for the support that you are providing at home each night with
the completion of homework. Each child is doing very well with coming into
the classroom on time and showing me their homework on their desk as they
copy the new day's homework into their agenda. We have earned many marbles
for following directions and for walking quietly in the halls and up the
stairs. We had our third Marble Jar Party and are very close to having our
FOURTH! I am very proud of our class. Thank you for sending me such
wonderful children to work with each day. :-)
Fondly, Mrs. Knight
