Dear Lincoln Families,
Conferences are almost here! Remember to sign your child up for a student-led conference. They will begin on October 12th (which is a half-day), October 16th, 17th, and 18th. With the teacher's support, students will present learning goals and and I can statements for their conferences. Together the student, parent, and teacher will discuss and celebrate a plan for the student. So each child needs to be present at the conference. Please sign up below on the link provided. If you have questions, more information will be given at Back-to-School Night. I encourage you to ask your child what goals they are thinking about for reading, writing, and math!

Snacks in the Classroom
Please make sure that everyday snacks are quick and easy for your child to handle. For example please no yogurt, pudding, uncut fruit, or messy items for daily snacks, including sandwiches. This avoids spilling on school devices, furniture, new carpet, etc. These food items work better in the lunchroom. Because the 4th grade has a fast-paced curriculum, snack time is a quick break, not a meal. Thank you for your understanding.
Birthdays
We love to celebrate birthdays! For students who would like to celebrate birthdays in our class please bring in non-food items, for example instead of cupcakes maybe pencils. Sometimes parents put together little gift bags. These are just ideas. There is no obligation to send anything!
