First Day of School

We had a wonderful first day of school! It was fun to get reacquainted with each other and get to know our new students. The students got to find out about me with My All About Me Bag. It was fun sharing my family with them. I cannot wait to see what the students share about their lives. It was helpful for me to list out each category on a card and it was also helpful to practice the night before I presented. The All About Me Bags can come in any day, Tuesday-Friday.

Thank you so much for all the donations! I appreciate the extra notebook paper, tissues, paper towels, baggies, soap, sanitizer, and Dum Dums. We could use a few more boxes of tissues, hand soap, sanitizer, Dum Dums, and Smarties. Thank you so much for your generosity.

We were unable to go out to recess due to the heat index. However, the students were pleased with indoor recess. The Fall Festival Game Basket followed them from last year, so they were happy to see some familiar activities. One thing that I forgot to request was playground equipment. Used balls from your garage make them very happy. I am always amazed at how much children like to play with balls!

Ask your child if they can remember all of the student's names with the alliteration game. This would be fun to play at the dinner table tonight! We also started cursive and multiplication today. The students were very excited about getting their agenda organized. Most of our day was spent on procedures.

I am turning the parent volunteer names to PTSA in the morning. The only volunteer parent that we are lacking is the Fundraiser Parent. Please let me know if you are interested.

More to follow tomorrow....
