Laseter, her little sister, Joan,
and her / aunt. Mrs. Jack Dooley,
came to our school room and
brought ice cream and cake
and chewing gum for the thirty
boys and girls in our room. We

We appreciate them sharing
their birthday parties with us.
This is Conference week, which
means that our parents have a
scheduled visit with our teacher '
to get report* on our work. Our
teacher, believing that frequent
checks and progress reports are
needed, has individual folders
and from time to time puts
some o f our work into
these folders, along with
readiness and achievement tests.
No one knows when this to be
done, so the work is normal. We
look at our work occasionally
for comparison. We can see ;
how we are improving and can I
see what particular thing we |
need to impove. We hope to !
show improvement every week.
We had* perfect attendance
three days last week. We are
proud of the fact that we have
seven children in our class who
have not missed a day this
year.
Joan Dial, Alvin Aldridge,
Harry Hinton, Nancy Lewis and
Carol Callaway brought pretty
daffodils to school last week.
Next week, we will have
spring holidays. We hope every
one has s happy, safe vacation!
