Welcome back!
It was amazing to see everyone’s smiling faces in this classroom yesterday, I am so excited to have everyone back and to hear the stories of adventure.
We are jumping right back in and starting setting up some habits that will carry us through the year. Most notably the planners. Every day, your child will bring home their planner with the things they did written in it. Please initial the bottom of the day and send it back. Most importantly though, make sure they have actually written something for the day! This is one of the ways I am trying to bridge the gap between the classroom and home, so you can see the lessons they were given and what they are working on in class so we can open a line of communication about successes and struggles in the classroom. To help hold us all accountable, if your child does not bring back the planner the next day with your signature, you are going to be receiving a phone call from your child to either come in and sign or bring the planner to school for them.
Thank you for understanding as we get this year underway! I am excited to work with you all this year and get to know everyone better.
