It was so nice to meet you all at open house. As a former coach I got a good sense that I'm working with a winning team of parents and students again this year.
Also thank you for those that spoke to your child about the amount of extra talking that was happening on the first day of school. Your child will be bringing home a gold folder each evening with a Math 'Homework' and 'Remembering' on the reverse side nearly every single night. This will begin on Sept.10. Please help your child establish a routine where they sit down and work on it. You check it over, and then they put it in the backpack that evening. They will start the paper in school and could be finished with it but I'd still like you to look it over. Reading for at least 20 minutes each evening is highly suggested. They will also bring home an 'Agenda.' It will include their Spelling words and a list of any other assignments. Free breakfast is offered again at school. Your child can also bring a small snack daily if they choose. We'll be taking a 5 minute break daily for a brief snack. Our lunch time is scheduled for 11:30 a.m. Many students take the free breakfast item and use it for their snack at snack time since many had just finished breakfast at home. My personal goal this year is to eat a piece of fruit during the snack time. If you have a child that has a schedule that changes often for their after school please send a paper note. One of the most frustrating part of my job is having a child come up to me minutes before dismissal and say they "think" they are suppose to go home on the bus when nearly every other day they are at Kid Stop. I must have a note from you or a phone call to change their after school plan. If you forget to send one DO NOT email me but rather call. 320-258-1203. I work very hard during the day and there are times when I do not sit down to check email until the school day is over. You picked up your child's paperwork on open house night and it was . due on Tuesday. Sign up for a PT Conference as well. The information was included in your packet from Open House. I will be teaching your child in Math. Mrs. Martin will be their Reading teacher and Miss Young will be teaching the Science/Social Studies and Writing. Please check out their websites as well. I'm really looking forward to this school year. If questions come up, please call or email me first. Thank you and let the learning begin! "STRONGER THAN YESTERDAY"
