Hello All! We had a great 2 day week last week. The students were so excited to be at school and were ready to learn. I can't wait for this week to start so we can get to know each other better and get our routines in place.
Each week I will send out an email to let you know what's happening in our classroom. I will cover curriculum, classroom events and school happenings..
Lunch and snack request:
Please be sure to send a separate drink in your child's lunchbox. Some students just brought a water bottle and nothing for lunch. When they have a separate drink it's less confusing for the students. Also, I hope this week goes smoother and we get in our morning snack time. We are going to have a morning and afternoon snack each day.......good thing because they all were telling me how hungry they were around 9:30 am last week. 
. Thank you for sending in peanut and tree nut free snacks with your child. That means everyone is safe during our snack time.
