First week of School

Hope everyone is had a great weekend!

It was a short week last week, and it definitely flew by! I think starting off with a 3 day week was great though, because even the aftercare teacher noticed how tired all the kids were. I have to say I am very excited about our class this year, all of the students are super sweet!

We did a lot this week to learn the routines, rules, and how we should treat each other. We also practiced our basic skills like scissors, glue, and crayons.   As you will find out I love to take pictures of what we do in class, I think it is a great way for parents to see what is happening in the class, and even other family members like grandparents. However, I was having a horrible time this weekend trying to upload them from my phone (I have a new one=() Once I figure it out though I will post them immediately! 

Next Week:

Next week will continue to work on our routines, but I will also be introducing our Daily 5, calendar time in math, social studies and Bible.

Next week I will be sending home students first memory verse. We are doing A-Z memory verses, one for every week. Please help your child practice at home and we will say them every day at school. Every Friday I will test students on the verses. Thx!

Notes

·        Please remember to bring back take home folders and empty them nightly.

·        Tuesday Night is our Curriculum night, which is twhere I will answer a lot of questions about what we are learning, homework, field trips, and take home folders.

·        Picture day IS NOT on the 11^th like the calendar says, I will post the exact date in my next post.

·         Last week and next week we will do snack together as a class, however the following week students should bring their own snack with their lunches, if they have not already been.
