Happy Spring Break! Whether you're staying home or going somewhere fun, I
hope you all have a wonderful vacation with your children. I'm keeping my
fingers crossed for some sunshine and warmer weather, but I don't think we'll
get that lucky. Regardless, I hope you all have a memorable week!
Thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come to
spring conference. Conferences are always one of my favorite times of the year
because I love meeting with all of you and sharing the wonderful growth your
child has made. We still have two months of school remaining for your child to
work on any goals that he/she has yet to master. We have a jam-packed fourth
quarter planned, so I'm looking forward to seeing even more progress.
When we return from Spring Break, we will be celebrating Autism Awareness
Week. We have several opportunities planned for the students to gain an
understanding of children on the spectrum, and to recognize that we're all
unique individuals. In addition to the lessons that we have planned, we will
also be having a spirit week. The days go as follows:
Monday - Sunglasses day...for our visually-orientated friends.
Tuesday - PJ Day...because we all have dreams.
Wednesday - Wear blue for World
Autism Day..."Keep Calm and Light it Up Blue."
Thursday - Tie-Dye Day...because no two people are alike.
Friday - Stuffed Animal Day...for our sensory-orientated friends.
We are having a loose change classroom contest the week after break. We
are collecting coins for our "One For Books" book fair contest. We are asking
students to donate pennies on Monday, nickels on Tuesday, dimes on Wednesday,
quarters on Thursday, and any denomination on Friday. The book fair
coordinators will keep track of the coins, and the class with the most money
collected, will win that amount to spend at the book fair. This contest was
hugely successful at or fall book fair. The book fair will run the week of
April 7th.
Have a restful ten days. I can't wait to see all the kiddos back on March 31st. :)
