Mrs. Kerian is Going on Vacation

Happy Monday and happy Valentine's Day!  I hope you enjoyed the beautiful weather this past weekend and had a chance to get outside.  Sounds like we are in for a fairly decent week ahead.  I think we deserve it!

I wanted to make a few quick post, nothing major because I will be seeing many of you for conferences tonight or tomorrow.  Remember that most of the conferences are student led, which means your 3B child will be leading the conference.  He/she knows what to do and can come right in and get started.  If there is a family finishing up, please do NOT wait outside.  Just come on in and get started or we will all get behind.  Due to scheduling conflicts, there are some families scheduled at the same time.

When your 3B child is done talking, I will join the conference to share my thoughts and ask him/her some questions as well.  They are very nervous but I know they will do fine.  If they struggle with some words on their evaluations, please feel free to help them.  See you sometime this week!

Take some time to watch Madison's news report of activities from last week in 3B!  She did a fabulous job and Austin did a wonderful job recording with the Flip Camera!

I wanted to remind students to also turn in their "Fitness Calendars" tomorrow as they are due.  I am not requiring it but would like as many 3B students to return them as possible.  A new one will be sent home tomorrow for the next month.  Remember to record your time activity (not in front of TV) as well as fruits that you have eaten at school and home.  I will then hand them into the committee and they will post results somehow (not too sure about that).

The students video book reviews are being uploaded as we speak and they are anxious to see them.  They did a fabulous job, and I hope to have them up on their blog pages by the end of the night or tomorrow (busy night ahead).  I encourage you to leave comments for them as they were so excited to share them and use the "flip camera" as well.  Look for them to all be up by the end of the week.  Great job 3B!

Finally, I wanted to mention to the parents that I will be gone on vacation next week.  My husband and I take a trip everyone to somewhere warm and tropical and that time is the end of this week through next week.   So........there will be a sub in the room all of next week. I have no doubt that the students will be in good hands as the sub is very good.  I have everything written out for her for every day so the students stay in a good routine.  I plan to send an additional note to the parents by the end of the week but wanted to give you a heads up.
