Two days under our belt!!!!

Happy Friday families!  WOW!  What a wonderful 2 days we have had to kick off our first grade year together.  I hope your new first grader is full of stories and excitement with a side of exhaustion.  Did your child come home telling you about their first HOMEWORK assignment?  Yes indeed, we have homework over the weekend.  Please help your child fill their "Me Bag" with 5 items that describe them.  We will share our Me Bags over the course of the next  few weeks as an way to get to know each other better.  Thank you for helping your child begin working on their responsibility and encouraging them to return their bag as soon as possible.  Also, please mark your calendars for next Tuesday August 18!  We will be have a QUICK Parent Night so that I can provide you with some of the nuts and bolts of first grade.  Thank you so much for making every effort to attend.  It is a great opportunity to ask any questions and get clarity before the year takes off on us.  Starting on Monday, we will begin our new Specials rotation.  Monday will be an "A" day and we will go to Music and PE your child will be expected to have safe running shoes for PE class.  Tuesday will be "B" days and we will visit Library and Computer.  Wednesday are "C" days and we are back to Music and PE, Thursday are "D" days with another visit to Library and Computer and Friday will be reserved for our new "EAGLE" day where we have a special Specials!  Enjoy your weekend together and please remember how important a schedule is for your child now that school has started.  I look forward to visiting with you next week!
