We had a great first two days of school! Please remember to send a healthy snack with your child each day. Some of the children were sent home with a small plastic snack box Friday. Please try to fill it with 5 snacks for next week. I will send the box home every Friday to be refilled. If you did not receive your box on Friday, I will send it home Monday. You can just send a snack for Monday only and then fill the box for the rest of the week when you receive it. I hope the boxes are big enough. If not, let me know! I had trouble finding the right size this year!
Also, no flip flops in first grade. We have problems with mulch sticking children in the foot. Also, for safety on the playground and stairs it is best to wear tennis shoes every day!
Thank you for returning your child's green folder with lunch money or any notes (such as a change in transportaion for the day, Doctor, etc.) each day. I will place notes, homework, special papers inside it each day too. This is our "communication folder."
Don't forget to return the white "Me Bags" and "Stars" this week! Me Bags are due Monday (Tuesday is fine if you don't get them filled) and Stars are due Wednesday.
Our Library Day is going to be on Monday. Please return Library books every Monday. We will visit the Library for the first time this week.
I'm looking forward to our first full week together!

Thanks for sharing, Mrs. Smith!
Thank you for sharing the information about Cystic Fibrosis with our class. Blake did a wonderful job helping mom explain his condition to the students and demonstrating how he will manage CF within our classroom community.

The First Day Of School
Wow! What an awesome group of kiddos! We had a great day.
We learned about some of Dr. Morgan's Kennerly Expectations and began setting some of our own classroom norms. The students brainstormed what they want their classroom to look like this year. We will vote on 4 of the most important norms tomorrow....I told them to sleep on it!
Some important reminders....
* Please do not send your child to school in flip flops. Unfortunately, the mulch on the playground can puncture their foot through the foam sole. It's always best to wear tennis shoes every day. We play on lots of equipment outside and we travel down lots of stairs during our day!
* Friday is always pizza day for lunch. Most of the kids buy lunch, but you can still bring. If your child would like an extra slice (2) of pizza it will cost another $2.50. Please let them know if it's okay with you.
* You can send in lunch money anytime in any envelope. Please mark lunch money and your child's name on the outside of the envelope. I will get it to the office to be placed in their lunch account.
* If you have not sent in your art shirt please do so as soon as possible.
* Thank you for doing such a great job getting supplies!! If you were unable to find the big school box your child will need 2 smaller ones. Thanks!
*Don't forget to work on your family stars! They are due next week, August 22nd.
*I sent home a parent survey for you to fill out tonight. Please return as soon as possible.
*Please send a snack (no juice drink) to school tomorrow. I will send home a snack box with your child tomorrow. Please fill it with 5 snacks for next week. I will return the box to be refilled every Friday. We have snack at approximately 2:00. We eat lunch at 11:30.
Please let me know if you have any other questions at this time. I will be giving you a lot more information on August 28th during Curriculum Night!
