Today was a great first day of first grade! It was wonderful to meet all of the students in our class!
Your child is bringing home some information to help you start the school year. These forms are inside your child's folder. This folder will go home every day and will need to return to school every day.
Student Handbook
This sheet includes the student pledge, student etiquette and behavior, and a set of rules for students to follow during the school day. Please take a moment at home to read this information with your child.
Student Information Sheet
This sheet is for you to fill out and return to school by Monday, September 4th. I want to create the best learning environment for each child, so extra information you can share with me is helpful!
Homework Schedule
You can keep the Grade 1 weekly homework schedule in your child's folder all year. The schedule will remain the same week to week. I have also uploaded the weekly schedule on Weebly under G1A Homework. I hope this helps you create a homework routine at home.
Class Dojo Invitation
Our class will be using Class Dojo this year. Each student has his/her own monster and will receive points throughout the week that reflect positive choices made at school. You can connect to your child's Class Dojo monster and follow the points he/she earns each day.
Swimming Information
This morning the swimming teacher visited our class and discussed swimming rules and routines. On Monday, September 4th our class will go to swimming for the first time. Students can wear their swimwear to school. They will also need to bring a swim bag with goggles. a swimming cap, a towel, a ziplock bag for wet clothes, and dry clothes to change into. Students will ride the bus to swimming, then change into their dry clothes before returning to school.
P.E. - Tuesday / Thursday
This is a friendly reminder that our class has P.E. tomorrow, Tuesday, August 29. Students need to wear their P.E. uniforms to school on P.E. days.
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you!
Miss Allison
