I am so excited about our school year! The first week was fabulous! I will send home a newsletter weekly to inform you of upcoming events and reminders.
I hope you have all had a chance to read through the book I gave you about our class at open house. It contains important information about the elementary and our classroom, including spelling words and reading strategies.
This week I will start taking grades and testing your child’s reading to determine their DRA level. There is more information in the class book about this. Our spelling test will be on Thursday. Homework was sent home today and I will not collect it until Friday.
Our P.E. days are Wednesday and Thursday. Please make sure your child wears tennis shoes on these days. Yearbook pictures are Friday the 26th. More information and order forms will go home next week.
If you would like to order books, please fill out your order with your child’s name on it. Please send a check only to purchase books. Orders are due on September 2nd.
Once again I am delighted to be your child’s teacher! I would like to thank you in advance for playing a vital role in your child’s education!
