I have some cut out work to complete. We are beginning a new reading curriculum this year called Reading Horizons.

One of our “awesome” teachers- Ms. Jalee completed the laminating process.  I am asking for some help to cut out this lamentation. I’m asking if there is some time this week  we can have a few parents for 45 minute – 1 hour who can come in the classroom and help to get this ready for students.

Tuesday would be a great day as we have our P.E. class and Music class where the students are gone from the classroom from 10:55 a.m. to 12:40 p.m.

Please respond to me by email lbowman@mariamontessoriacademy.org to let me know.

I am also in need of a Room Parent. This is a responsibility I would really appreciate the extra help as many of our returning parents know the tasks which I may need assistance with. (I’m still learning this part- so any advice would be appreciative.)

Please respond to me by email lbowman@mariamontessoriacademy.org to let me know.

Parents and students-

I just want to congratulate each of Ms. Leslee and Ms. Susan’s students this week for working so productively. I will be sending home the “work planner” to let you see how Wednesday- 21st through Friday-23rd each student tried their best and started to implement the “work cycle” day.

I would ask you, parents, to please continue to remind your student each day I only ask they try their best. I know some of our “new” students- this is a bit of an adjustment to be able to work independently or with small groups.

I am striving to do my best to work specifically with the 1st graders in the next couple of weeks to get them established on how to determine what they would like to start with and then to chose the next assignment as they use their time wisely.

We have some great 2nd and 3rd graders who have been “awesome” examples as to how to work and complete each task as they are going along during our “work cycle” time.

Thank you again parents for being a great support to your child. Please make sure you have brought your supplies- the composition books-3 ring binder- lined paper- etc.  If you are in need to check the supply list it is on the front of the blog.

We are starting our specials this week. We will have on Tuesday – Music 10:55 a.m.- 11:45 a.m. We also have on Tuesday – P.E. 11:50 a.m. – 12:40 p.m.

I just want to thank you again for your support and your child’s attendance. It makes our “community” classroom so alive!!!

Ms. Leslee and Ms. Susan
