A little gobble gobble and we are onto December!

Wow! I am amazed that Thanksgiving Break has come and gone!  I hope that everyone had a restful and relaxing few days with family and friends!

I wanted to say Thank You to everyone for making their conference time.  It was a quick 20-30 min, but I had the chance to meet with almost every family either on Monday or Tuesday. I also wanted to say thank you to those families who braved the "First Oregon Snowfall of the Year" to make it to your conference that morning!
I had the chance to chat quit a bit about reading and goals for the rest of the year either academically or socially for each student in my classroom and it definitely helps to know that we are all on the same page and it takes a team to see 1st graders succeed. 

Please let me know if there are any other questions you have or things you want to know because having a good relationship between parents and teachers is another factor of success that I think is very important to have!

Again, thank you, and watch out....we only have 13 days of school for the month of December!! :)
