Hello First Grade Parents,
Here we go again! Welcome to a brand new school year. I am so excited to see what this year brings us. I can tell already the kids are very ready and eager to learn. We will have jammed packed days and your child will be tired. It is totally normal. I want to remind you to make sure your child has a big breakfast in the morning so they are ready to work as soon as they get here. I also want to thank you ahead of time for having their homework journal packed in their bag and having them prepared for each day. It will all become a part of your routine very soon. If you would like to volunteer in our classroom we sure could use you. I am looking for volunteers to read and work with children during Writing to Read. Writing to Read is each day from 1:30-2:30. Also, I am sure Mr. Pearson could use you during PE. That would be a great time for all. Homework has started and it was a success. I was thrilled and so were they. Most weeks they will have homework 3-4 nights a week and it will be a mirror image of something they have learned that day. Remind them to put that folder right back in their bag when finished and it will be ready to pack up for the following day! If you ever need to reach me feel free to drop me an an email here at school or call me. I will return your message as soon as I can. Working together is the key to success. Let's do this!
