Good-bye, January

I thought blogging would be easy!  Exciting!  Awesome!  hummmm . . . . staring at the blank screen in from of me, reality sets in! 

Wednesday and Thursday of this week are Parent-Teacher Conferences.  Several years ago, Mrs Hancock and I learned about Student Directed Conferences and decided to try them.  For me, it's a different experience from running through my meetings with parents at what seems to be breakneck speed, but always being 10 to 15 minutes behind schedule no matter how fast I talk! 

I really enjoy watching the interactions between my students and their parents.  Together they review the student's progress.  Read some samples of the student's writing.  Look at some art projects.  Talk about books the student has read in the past few months. Look over the student's progress report.  And I am here to answer questions, address concerns, or explain why a student has a "1" in Daily Assignments" under Language Arts ( . . . tsk, tsk, tsk . . . little or no homework back). 

See you then!

And best of all, we are one month closer to spring, the Best Season of All!
