Hello Parents and Guardians of Room 29,

Next week we will have our first Goal setting conference. I am looking forward to seeing everyone. I do want students to attend their conferences. The goals are for parents, teacher, and students to set together. We finished our first chapter in math and we are on our way through chapter two. We are continuing our learning on using shades of meaning in our writing. Students are working on refreshing their memory on how to write the three parts (introduction, body, and conclusion) to a paragraph. In Social studies we have been discussing how to identify key features in maps. I have been incorporating social emotional learing in our lessons. This week we have started our days off with a talking prompt and walk while discussing prompt; example, how can we use positive words to help grow our growth mindset. 

Warm Regards,

Mr. Throm

Here are the highlights of the next few weeks:  

• Book Fair, Thursday, 9/24/26 @ 8:15am

• Goal setting conferences all week 9/28-10/2, minimum days, dismissal is at 12:35.

• 10/7/26 Fall Picture makeups 

• A few helpful reminders:

• Please have all students in bed by 8:30. This is a pinnacle time in their growing process and students need sleep. 

• Encourage students to show you their weekly planner and the tasks they have completed daily. 

I  have placed a Weekly Planner Schedule under the "Student Files" to help everyone  understand what is being done together as a class and what is homework. I will also be making minor changes to our Google Classroom throughout the year. 

Sincerely, 

Mr. Throm.
