Weekly Bulletin 10/27

Hi everyone!

Here's a quick list of important info for our class. 

End of the Term

The last official day of the term is Nov 7th. I am requiring all work to be turned in by Nov 6th so that I have time to grade all assignments before reporting final term grades. I always tell students that it's better to turn in work late, than not at all!

Guest Speaker

This week on Thursday, we will have a forensic sketch artist from the Multnomah County Sheriff's Department giving a presentation about how she uses art and science on the job.

Day of the Dead Celebration

Last week I sent a letter home about our Day of the Dead class celebration on Friday Nov. 1st. The kids are really excited about it, and have created some amazing art already. If you plan on purchasing any party supplies from the list, please let me know ahead of time so we don't end up with double. (below)

Conferences

If you haven't signed up for a conference, please let me know what day/time you prefer and I will do my best to find a time slot that works for you. A week before conferences, I will send home individual reminders to every family. Here are times set aside for conferences:

11/21 - 4:00pm - 7:45pm

11/25 - 8:45am - 7:45pm

11/26 - 8:45am - 3:45pm
