And We're Off...

I am so happy to announce that we are off to a GREAT start to our school year. This is truly a very NICE and FUN group of kids. I am enjoying my time with them and look forward to a productive and entertaining year for us all. :-)

Tonight, in your child's take-home binder you will find several notes.
  1. Wednesday, August 18th will be our first "book talk". Please have your child bring one of his or her favorite books to share with the class. They will tell a bit about the book and then explain why they liked it so much.
  2. On Friday, August 20th we will make a classroom friendship mix for our morning snack. If you are able, please send an item for your child to add to our mix. Ideas include cereal, chocolate chips, raisins, marshmallows, M&M's, goldfish crackers, or any other dry snack food that you find appropriate. NO NUTS, PLEASE! :-)
  3. Students are welcome to bring healthy snacks and water bottles each day.
  4. When sending snacks, please be aware that we have a students with a nut/treenut allergy. Please do not send peanuts, peanutbutter snacks, almonds, cashews or any nuts for your child's snack. We are not allowed to have any nuts in the classroom this year. Thank you for your help in keeping all of our classroom family members happy and healthy!

Thank you for your help!
