Mrs. Confer’s Lincoln Kindergarten Class          January 22, 2021
Jan 25 and  26: virtual PT Conf in eve Jan 28 and 29 - ½ days - Mrs Confer will be out there will be a sub in am. Feb 12th and 15th  - No School ADMINISTRATION DECISION: Computers may NOT be left at school. In order to be consistent across buildings and grades, the kindergarten students are to take home their computers every night to charge and do work as needed.  They are then to be returned to school everyday for classroom use.  I am so sorry for all the confusion.  This is a final decision for this school year.  If you have any questions, please contact Mr Hubble. Snowgear - LABEL EVERYTHING and put it all in a separate reusable bag.  Backpacks should be for things that are dry: computers, folders and library books.  Outerwear will often get wet or muddy and should not go in the backpack with other school materials.   These items may stay at school during the week and come home on weekends if that works well for your family.  Just tell your child the plan. Positivity Project - Our word this week was Perseverance. We never give up even when things are difficult. We are using the phrase: “Not Yet” instead of “I can’t”	Parent Teacher Conferences Winter conferences are not intended for all families.  I have sent out notices to confirm times for all the families with whom I am meeting. If you did not get your note or need a reminder, please text or email me. If your child is in need or headphones or water bottles, I will be sending home notes.  These are important for our classroom and every child needs both.   This week is a catch up week for us.  Lots of review and practice of what we have learned so far.  Please be sure to practice the sight words and spelling words with your child at home.  This week almost our whole class got perfect or near perfect scores on Spelling!!!  Keep it up!   3-D shape Museum - Please read the notice on the back about sending in 3-D shaped objects.  Label with tape with your child’s name please.  We will send objects back home next Friday.   https://conferk20.blogspot.com Any questions ?: aconfer@stjoebears.com text me at  773-968-9657
