Upcoming Week Info!
Posted in Classroom, Montessori Philosophy, Shared School | No Comments »Hello Everyone!
This past Friday, 10 of the new 1st graders came for orientation! That’s a great turn out! Thank you for giving your child that opportunity to see their new classroom, meet me, and prepare for tomorrow.
Back to School Night!
This coming week we have Back to School Night on Thursday the 18th. If you are brand new to Montessori, I highly recommend you come at 6:30 to our Montessori 101 half hour presentation in the Library. From 7-8 will be open house style in our classroom. I usually give out important handouts that will be relevant for the whole year. It also gives you an opportunity to see our room and ask Emilee and I questions. I look forward to seeing new and veteran parents on Thursday!
Can I Help my Child to Your Room?
Now that school is about to begin tomorrow, if your child is unable to carry his/her own supplies, we will have your child drop them off at the front of the school since we are beginning normalization and parents will not be permitted to go back to our classroom. Please make sure your child’s supplies are bagged with their NAMES ON THE BAG. Emilee and I will be sorting the rest of the supplies tomorrow after school and it is very helpful if a name is on those things that need to be labeled.
Early Out Week
Please remember that this whole week will be 1pm dismissals. Please pack your child a lunch!
Snack & Lunches
Our school requires health food options for both snack time and in lunches. No drinks with colored dyes, sodas, sweets/treats, or food that needs heating up more than 2:00 mins. Cup of Noodles and Ramen take FOREVER to get soft. Your child doesn’t get enough time to eat them. I understand that they are easy to pack, but they need to be PRECOOKED and ready to go if you choose that food for your child. Easy Mac isn’t as bad, but it still is a food that needs a little bit of cooking time. If we have half our class waiting for the microwave, then eating time is very limited. If you can, I recommend a non-heatable lunch.
Snack time is 2 people at a time. This coming week we will do group snack for a couple of days, but then begin to practice our 2 person snack pull.
- IMPORTANT: We have a child with a nut allergy. Please no peanut butter or nut products this year. I will give more info as I get more info from the parents. Thanks!
- Can anyone bring in snack for the week starting tomorrow? (Email me and let me know. First come first serve!) I will reset the snack sign up tomorrow after school.
