First Week Reminders

Posted on by

It is crazy to think our first week of school is already almost coming to a close! This entire week has been focused around building a classroom community and introducing the 7 habits into our classroom. While going through this week, I just have several quick reminders for you.

  • Your updated Emergency Card is due tomorrow! Please make sure to sent that information in
  • We will NOT have school on Friday, August 31st and Monday, September 3rd due to the Labor Day Holiday. 
  • Mobile Dentist forms went home yesterday. These forms are completely voluntary, and are not required if you do not want your child to see the dentist when they come. If you would like your child to see the Dentist, the forms are due on September 4th
  • During dismissal, if you have younger children in grades young 5-2nd and would like to have your child go out the other doors. Please just contact me! I would love to make accommodations for you.
  • Lastly, our classroom is in the need for some homeroom parents. If you are interested in this lovely volunteer position please let me know. I would love to have some extra hands.

 

Thank you!

Two students shaking hands that states "so nice to meet you"

It was such a pleasure to finally meet so many lovely students. I can tell that Third Grade in room 208 is going to be a wonderful place. As this week progresses, you may begin to notice that there will be quite a few notes going home. Make sure to check your child’s homework folder that went home today.

In addition, tomorrow I will be sending out our third grade flip-book and teacher letter. This flip-book will be your guide to procedures and expectations in third grade. The third grade team has placed magnets on the back of the flip-book so you may hang on your refrigerator!

All this week we are working on establishing classroom and school expectations and routines. We are also working with to be future leaders by following the Leader in Me First 4 Day program. We will be working on the first four habits this week: Be Proactive, Begin with the End in Mind, Put First Things First, and Think Win-Win. Tomorrow we will also be putting our first day supplies away for students.

Listed below are some important events going on this week

Tuesday- First Full Day (please remember to pack or bring money to purchase lunch), Anti-Bullying Assembly, Flip-book Notes are going home

Wednesday- Brown Paper Bag Show-and-Tell due in class

Thursday- Emergency Cards are due
