We want to thank all of you who made it out to our open house last week! It was so wonderful meeting you, listening to your summer adventures, and answering your questions. If you didn't get a chance to stop in and see us, we will have a few minutes this Tuesday at our hot dog roast. Also, you may be able to catch us in the building this week until Thursday, or call the school at 773-9889.
Here are some topics that came up during our meetings that may be helpful to others:
*Please make note that we corrected the "Island Schedule" and now have it available for you to see on the "For Your Information" page. The change that is new to all of us this year is having our lunch recess right before our actual lunch. We will be having recess at 11:30 and lunch at 11:55.
*As some also noticed on the schedule, there wasn't an exact placement for our Science and Social Studies lessons. Don't you worry! We will continue focusing on them throughout the week, and they will be implemented into our Language Arts and Math lessons! We are getting very creative! :)
*Please pack a healthy snack for your child daily.
*Water bottles are okay in the classroom. Unless they become a distraction, or they become messy too often.
*We don't have a specific app for this website, however there is a way to put it on the home screen of your smart phone. Open up this website on your internet browser, and simply add a link to your home screen! Pretty cool! (Ms. Nemeth can try to show you how).
*Please remember that we are doing a "community supply" this year. That means you will not need to put your child's name on any of their items except for their binder. This binder will be traveling with your child throughout the day. (Think of it as a portable desk) :)
*Our school day begins at 8:15. However, if you get to school early, you will have the chance to sit with your friends in the gym each morning! Breakfast will be served in our classroom each morning at 8:15, and each day we will also have a special at 8:30! Make sure you get to school right on time!
*Please bring a pair of non-marking sole gym shoes to keep at school for your child.
If you have any other questions, please feel free to get ahold of us!
Thanks! :)
