Ms. Amy's Montessorians

We had a wonderful week getting to know eachother, learning new math, language and social studies lessons.  There are a few upcoming events you will want to be aware of:

Sept. 13th – Back-to-School Night – 6 – 8 p.m. – I look forward to meeting new families and seeing old families.  I have been working hard preparing the upcoming field trip permission slips.  Please come sign them at Back-to-School Night and get this years flip book full of a lot of important information.

Sept. 21st 2018 – Field Trip to Freedom’s Light, Celebration of the Constitution – This permission slip was sent home last week.  Please send it back as soon as possible.  If you need another one have your child get one tomorrow at school.

We are in need of a small cordless stick vacuum for our classroom.  I tried to fix the one I purchased last year, but I could only get part of it to work. 🙁  If anyone has a way of purchasing one at a decent price please let me know.  It’s much easier for the children to restore after lunch and at the end of the day with a vacuum.

Thank you to our amazing families.  One family volunteered to take our broken vacuum home to try to fix.  Another family ordered one for our classroom.  THANK YOU for listenning to our classroom needs.  You are awesome!

Thank you,

Ms. Amy

We have had a wonderful first week of school.  I have loved getting to know the new students in our classroom and catching up with the students who have already been in our class.

We have been practicing our Grace & Courtesy and learning new procedures we are implementing into our classroom this year.  Ask your child about the ready to learn positions we learned today.  We are all getting to know the new students in our class through team building and get to know you activities.  I love learning something new about each student.

Your children received their planners today.  This is an essential part of our classroom.  Your child is required to write down what he has accomplished in the classroom everyday.  Every evening please sit down with your child and discuss what he did that day, then sign the bottom of the planner.  This is your way of keeping track of what your child is doing and will help your child learn responsibility.  He will be responsible for reminding you to read and sign his planner each day.  The school provided these planners for your children.  If the planner is lost it is your responsibility to purchase another one.  They may be purchased for $15.00 at the front office.
