November Parent/Student/Teacher Conferences

To sign up for a PARENT TEACHER STUDENT CONFERENCE... 

https://www.signupgenius.com/tabs/23677d705aecaeac60-2022fall

We are again using the "Sign-Up Genius" online system to schedule our Fall 22-23 Parent-Teacher-Student Conferences.  Important to know this year when signing up is that each day is a bit different in "format"...

• Tuesday, November 15th - IN PERSON conferences at EQ

• Thursday, November 17th - All Conferences will be VIRTUAL via Google Meets

• Friday, November 18th - IN PERSON conferences at EQ

Families should "sign-up" for a time either way so that you can have an uninterrupted time with your child's teacher.

IMPORTANT - When arriving at the linked website, FIRST click the TAB at the top of the page for the teacher/classroom you are wishing to schedule a conference.*

Once you have chosen the correct tab for the classroom/teacher, click Sign-Up next to the time you prefer from the available slots and then click Submit and Sign-up  at the bottom of the page. This will bring up a box that will ask you for your student's name. You are not required to enter your email address or sign up for an account with Sign-Up Genius. However, if you do enter your e-mail information you will receive a reminder 1 day prior to the conference date.  If you already have a Sign-Up Genius account, make that choice and enter your login information.   *Please note that some parent student teacher conferences have already been scheduled with a teacher/specialist.  If your child's teacher already called/e-mailed you to schedule a conference, disregard this message as our conference will already be held/listed on the site.

Once you are finished, click Sign Up Now, and the process is complete.

If you have any questions or are unable to access the internet to sign-up, please contact the Quinney Office Staff at 766-6116 or your child's classroom teacher

Thursday virtual conferences:  Each teacher has a separate link for their Google Meets for conferences.  You will be able to see the URL address for your child's teacher on the Sign-up Genius on the day that corresponds to your conference (Thursday).  On the day and at the time of your scheduled conference, copy and paste that URL address into your Internet browser.  

Author in Residence a Success!

We hope your students enjoyed our week with Miranda Paul!  We enjoyed an assembly together to start the week, then Writers Workshop sessions, and lastly publishing our poems and the Family Event!  Click here to view photos from the week!

#QuinneyReads

In honor of #QuinneyReads, a month long celebration of reading, a copy of "Mysteries according to Humphrey" has been given to each student courtesy of our EQ PAC.  We invite you to read it with your child at home following the chapters we share each week.  We will also provide an opportunity for students to hear chapters read to them during their lunch recess.

Discussion Questions: Classes will discuss the questions on Fridays. Please discuss the questions each week with your child if you would like to before Friday!

Nov 7-11,  Chapters 1-4

Sherlock Holmes plays what kind of instrument to help him think, and he wears what type of strange looking hat?

Why did Humphrey get out of his cage after Aldo left?  

What did he try to do?

#QuinneyReads #ReadEverywhere

We are asking families to send us pictures of your child reading to eqoffice@kaukaunasd.org

We are gathering pictures of teachers, staff, and students reading their favorite book in whatever location (house, outside, in a different state, etc) they enjoy reading at. In your email, please attach ONE PHOTO, include your CHILD'S NAME, GRADE/CLASSROOM TEACHER, and the name of the location they are reading in and/or who they are reading with (dog, cat, sibling, etc)

 We will create a schoolwide slideshow that will will be presented on our daily announcements and in the cafeteria.  Here are examples of teacher photos and how we will format them once received.  Students can be reading the Humphrey book or ANY Book in their picture.

November Focus = GRATITUDE

• PurposeFull Pursuit:

  What are some small, specific things that you are Grateful for? Maybe it is your favorite water cup, the way the cat sleeps on the chair, or when your grandma bakes banana bread. Spend some time as a family trying to think of at least 10 small things that you have Gratitude for and then choose to notice them this week with a smile.

  Conversation Starters:

  • Can you describe for me a time when you felt disappointed recently?
  • Why is it important or helpful to practice Gratitude when we feel disappointed?

Community Events and Activity Flyers

There are a great many worthy undertakings in the Kaukauna Area School District that understandably deserve public support. The Board of Education/School District assist with this process in providing notice to students and/or families of certain non-school-related community activities/programs that are for public school-age students (that apply and meet policy conditions). Click here or visit the school district website to view the up to date list of events and flyers
