1 week left before track out!
- Snacks – Please be sure your child packs a healthy snack every day. We go to recess at 11:45AM and that is when the children can eat their snack. We then have lunch at 1:30PM; it is a long day for the children if they don’t have a snack.
- White T-Shirts – Please have your child bring in a white t-shirt to tie dye before we track out for school field trips. Make sure you have your child’s name on the inside of the shirt with a sharpie.
- DOT Folder – Please be sure your child is bringing their DOT folder every day to school. This is the way I communicate with behavior, work done in class and assessments. The first page on their DOT folder has how their day went and whether or not they showed their PAWS. I encourage you to discuss with your child items in their DOT folder.
- Homework – Please be sure you are reading with your child 10 minutes every day. I will not be reading books this week since we are tracking out. If your child has not brought in their reading book, please do so before we track out. All homework is given on Monday and must be returned by Friday.
- Absence – Please be sure to send in a note if you child is absent within 2 days of their absence otherwise it will be marked unexcused.
- Transportation Changes – Any transportation changes must be in writing, please do not e-mail me or call the office as it will not be accepted.
- Special Rotation – We are on a 7 day Specials rotation. Starting on Monday September 26th the rotation will be:
- Volunteers and Field Trips – If you would like to volunteer on our field trips please do so ASAP. Our first field trip is when we track back in. It will be at Page Farms on October 26th, 2016. Please be sure to send in your permission slip before we track out or your child will not be able to attend.
