We have had a wonderful start to the new year. I am really enjoying getting to know your children. They are a special and great group!! I am looking forward to being with them for the next 2 years. They have been troopers this week with the heat because it has been hot in the school.
Friday folders went home today with our first share theme and schedule. Please read this over and let me know if you have any questions. There is also a short note from me, our class schedule and a big envelope from the school with forms to be filled out and a calendar. If your child has a younger sibling in the school, they will not be bringing home the big envelope, your younger child will.
Several students have been asking about homework this week. Homework will begin the week after curriculum night.
This week we have been doing some activities to get to know each other. We wrote our hopes and dreams for the year, created a self portrait, shared information about ourselves in morning meeting and played some team building games with the 2nd grade class on Firefly. We even had our first 2 lessons in math where we created a chart with twin popsicles to count by 2s and created a graph with our favorite flavors of popsicles.
I'd also like to welcome our new Team Para, Colleen Nick!
Just a few housekeeping reminders:
-please remember to send in a note to let me know if your child's afternoon schedule has changed
-please remember to send your child with sneakers on P.E. days (Monday and Thursday)
-check back here each week to see what's happening in our classroom:)
I hope everyone has a wonderful and restful long weekend,
Nancy
