Off to a great start: We are off to a great start. We are making new friends andvisiting with old friends. We are spending some time reviewing reading andmath skills while geetting know each other. We are spending time learning the rules and expectations for first grade. It's been a great first week of school.
Gym Class: Next week (week of Aug. 31) our gym class will be on Tuesday. Please send tennis shoes with your child if they don't wear them to school that day. The following week and from then on our gym class will be on Wednesdays.
Student planners: Starting Monday, be sure to look for your child's student planner in his or her bookbag. It will have a daily report of your chid's behavior and work habits in school. Read the note on the inside cover of the planner for more information. You will need to check and signor inital it daily. It needs to be brought back to school each day.
School Supplies: Each child has a small box of crayons and a glue stick on their desks. Many of you have asked if you can send in additional supplies for your child. YES! Thank you! Most of the children love to have their own supply of goodies. Extra crayons, markers, pens, pencils, Magic Markers, glue sticks, scissors,bottles of glue, glitter, pencil sharpeners and erasers are a few things I have seen coming in. You can send in a pencil box or bag for them to keep things in if you like. I have many of those things on my desk for the children to share but the supply is somewhat limited. They seem to love going shopping for these items and having them to keep in their desks and to play with at play time on rainy days.
