Welcome back to school!!! I am so
excited to have your students this year. I love my class already!!
This is the first blog post of the
year. I try to send out an email with the blog link every Saturday. Sometimes
it doesn’t work out, but you will hear from me each week.
Our
schedule: I am still trying to work out some logistical problems, so I
don’t have details yet about centers or when I will need parent volunteer help.
I am hoping to have that ready for next week.
We have our specials from 11:10 till 11:50 each day.
Monday – P.E.
Tuesday – Music
Wednesday – P.E.
Thursday – Music
Fridays will change according to the Secondary A/B Fridays. I
will let you know each week which we will have, Music or P.E.
Our lunch is from 12;38 till 12:58
and recess is from 12:58 till 1:18.
We have Snack at 10:10 and
recess from 10:15 till 10:30.
Character
Counts: Our character focus for September is Trustworthiness. We will
be reading stories and having discussions about becoming Trustworthy and what
that means.
In my class,
we spend Monday through Thursday working on Writing, Math, Reading, Vocabulary
and Grammar. Friday is our Science and Social Studies days. We also have Chess
and Enrichment Clubs on Fridays. It is very important for your student to be
here every day. We have a lot of material to cover and we don’t waste time!
The first Scholastic Book Order is coming home today. It is due
back Friday, September 20.
There is also an order form for Highlights magazine. Please sign
and return this form, even if you choose not to order the magazine. Our class
gets a prize for our room if everyone brings it back!
