what we have in store. We think you are
really going to enjoy it! Please remember

Conference time: M-F 12:30-1:15p (Please
schedule)
It has been a busy time academically in Pre-K 4.
The children have learned all of the vowels and
the blending of a consonant with a vowel. Please
continue to practice the consonant blends at
home. That would be interchanging a consonant
letter with the short vowel sounds of: a, e, i, o
and u. They have also learned the recognition
and numbers through eight.
I am looking forward to sitting down with each of
you for Parent-Teacher Conferences. PLEASE be
prepared to sign acknowledging that you have
received your little ALL-STAR’s class work, home-
work and graded work thus far. All work you re-
ceive is yours to keep and should remain at
home. Due to the nature of the meeting, I am
asking that students NOT attend this meeting
with parents. (However, I can make accom-
modations if you have no choice but to bring
your little ALL-STAR to the meeting with you.)
Each meeting is planned to afford time for
discussion between teacher and parent of
your little ALL-STAR’s progress, time to see
children’s work, and time to hear a projection
of what the children will be taught in the com-
ing months.
Reminder:
ALL-STAR Parents, Pre-K is really looking for-
ward to you attending the upcoming
Thanksgiving program scheduled on
Friday, 11/18/2016 at 9a. We have
been working really hard on our Pre-K
Conner-Williams’ All Stars
Proud Kinder Teachers Wow!
Can you believe that these are pumpkins? Ms.
Williams and Ms. Woodard’s kindergarten
classes showed out. They created story book
characters out of pumpkins. The competition was
fierce; I would not have wanted to be a judge in
this contest.
This was an awesome event, parent turnout was,
amazing! TDPACS Vickery Campus has the best
parents EVER! Let’s take our hats off to Ms. Wil-
liams and Ms. Woodard’s for an awesome Idea.

First Grade Review
Second Grade in Action
First Grade is on the path to success!!!
It is imperative that you take time to review
concepts with your child that are sent home
via homework. Take time to go through these
concepts and find other fun ways for your
child to master these concepts.
Some Things to Remember:
Tuesday, November 15, 2016: HEB Field
Trip
Friday: November 18, 2016: Thanksgiving
Program (9am) and Family Lunch Day
(10am-12noon)
Friday, November 18th is also an EARLY
RELEASE DAY! All students must be
picked up by 12:30pm!
Parents,
Just a reminder, class starts at 7:45. Those students that
are late are missing important information. Also students are
working very hard thus far. Parents, I would also like to thank
those of you that attended the parent/ teacher conference. I
believe with your support your child will be very successful
this year. For the next six weeks we will continue to work on
multiplication in 3rd grade, so continue practicing at home.
Also, please check your child’s agenda daily for homework,
behavior, and other important information. Finally, if you need
to schedule a conference please contact the school or email
me at [email protected]. I am looking forward to
continuing working you as well as the students.

Parents,
We are wrapping up unit 2 which focused on nonfiction, infor-
mational texts and will begin focusing on other genres, such as
drama and poetry in unit 3. We are continuing to work on using
the writing process, and will put a lot of emphasis on the revis-
ing and editing part of the process in the coming weeks.
This is also a great time of year to encourage some fun writing
activities such as writing about things they are thankful for,
thank you notes, and
notes to rela- tives to catch
up on the last year. Please
make sure to encourage your
child to read everyday.
Reading a book to a younger
sibling, magazines, and of course on
level books are great ways to get this in each day.
Next six weeks we will be doing a sandwich
book project, so please help your child to find a
book that they would love to do a project on.
Details coming soon.
Last, I have seen great improvements and ef-
forts in your student and that could not have
happened without the effort and support of us
working as a team. Lets keep it up!
Ms. Sexton
Hooray!
We have made it through another six weeks
and I appreciate all the work you have been
doing at home with your student.
Please note that homework goes home every
Friday and is due the following Friday, no
exceptions. Also, please be sure that you are
reading the weekly story with your student
each night and if they aren’t comprehending,
there is a comprehension check at the end of
the story. Texas Treasures books will be
going home each night.
There is a sheet in their homework folder
that is to be signed letting me know that you
received their graded work for the week,
which also goes home every Friday.
Please provide your student with a bottle of
water each day.

We are now preparing for Science Day
on November 15, 2016. As teachers we
are always looking for ways to build ex-
citement in our science students.
In this area of testing, it becomes even
more important for us to remember that
the motivation to learn science and to
pursue science as a career does not
come from choosing among answers
A,B,C, or D! Stu-
dents love celebra-

Science exciting by
