Dear Parents,
I would appreciate that you read the following carefully. Today we collected all paper and cleaning goods, as well as loose-leaf and construction paper and stored them in the classroom. These will be distributed to the children throughout the year as needed. I collected TWO folders per child and left your child with ONE which will be labeled their HOMEWORK FOLDER. This folder must travel to school and back home every day and must be kept neat to hold only important paper and cards. If you have not done so, please send in the three folders NO LATER THAN MONDAY. I sent home all packages of unsharpened pencils, markers, colored pencils. Please open the boxes and place three sharpened pencils with erasers and three different colored dry erase markers in a pencil case and the set of colored pencils in another pencil case and leave the rest AT HOME. A glue stick should be placed with the colored pencils so children are prepared for class daily!
The two reams of blank paper you sent in were collected and taken to the office so the principal can make copies for us during the year. As I mentioned at the meeting I will need you to send in one more ream of this blank paper for classroom use. I have enough personal white boards for each child so there is no need to purchase these. However, I do need every parent to send in five dollars for the privacy shields to be used during testing. I will have someone order them by next Wed. so please send in the money before then.
Please make sure you do NOT send in pencil sharpeners or loose-leaf binder or pencil boxes. Children sit as tables and have only a seat sack to store their books and supplies so there not much room. The one notebook should have should be composition type, have a hard cover, and consist of enough pages. Please make sure you send in the correct folders shown at the meeting.
We have received a schedule yet but I was informed gym starting next week will be on Tuesday at 8:15. On Fridays we can have dress down as long as class behavior is ok.
Please send in lunch in lunch boxes not bags and for now do not send anything to be heated up till a microwave is available in the lunchroom.
A behavior chart will be set up by Monday and a star given out by Thurs. based on good behavior and being prepared for class. Please do your best to have all supplies in no later than Monday. Please send in all signed forms including two emergency cards at one time all together!Thank you for your cooperation!
Ms. Saville
