Curriculum Night and Giveaway Reminder

Even though school has started yet, I am already thinking about curriculum night!  Curriculum night is the second week of school so I need to be thinking about it already!

Here is a FREE TPT packet that I have for curriculum night.  It has invitation letters, poems, giveaway ideas etc. 

 
In addition to the items in the packet, I also include sight words, math flashcards, my first newsletter (curriculum and weekly newsletter) the EDM homelinks book and a few other practice ideas.

One activity that I complete is to have leveled books on tables.  I have a level C/4, E/8, G/12 andJ/18.  (Those are my quarterly expectations.)  I show parents and allow them to see the difference in levels.  I also include a reading level coresponding chart because many parents want to know what books they need to find when they are at the library.  I also discuss the five finger rule for reading and what they should expect from their child at certain levels/ time of the year.  I hope to put this into a table format.  If I do- I will be sure to share it with you!  :)

As I finish my new slideshow, I'll come back and attach it here!


Also, just a reminder about my giveaway!  Please click the icon below and it will take you to the giveaway post!

Have a wonderful day!  :)

Curriculum/Parent Night

I am really excited for curriculum night this year!  I have about half of my parents attending next week. 

I have scoured all of the back to school sales and bought many cheap items to make homework box starter kits!  I really wanted to provide the box for the students to use for their homework box but buying 25 boxes at .59 cents each started to add up quickly! 

I contacted Meijer and filled out a donation request form during the summer.  They called about month ago and approved us for a $25 gift card!  :)  We are using the gift card to buy some snacks for the parents to munch on during our presentations.

I created a Curriculum Night packet on TPT and posted it for FREE.  This time of year, I figured we are all stressed and I figured by us helping each other out in even just the TINIEST little way can help relieve some stress! 

You can find my packet here.  :)
