For the past month or so we have been trying to earn cubes during specials.  This has been a more challenging time of day for the class.  We have particularly been working on listening and being respectful.  Our goal was to fill a jar to the halfway point and this afternoon we had an extra long choice time and special snack (cider and pretzels) to celebrate meeting this goal.

I have been busily assessing students and am right in the middle of completing report cards, which will go home next week.  Conferences will also be held next week and the Monday and Tuesday of the following week.  In the next 24 hours or so you should receive information about scheduling a conference using our online scheduler.  I will be offering conferences Thursday, November 15th, Monday, November 19th, and Tuesday, November 20th.  If for some reason none of the available slots work for you please let me know and we can make arrangements to meet at a different time.  I'm looking forward to meeting with all of you soon!
