We had a great back to school week. I got to know all the children and we are always engaged in some great activities.
I have been doing some assessments to know the level of students in English and Math. We will continue this week with some more assessments including reading and spelling assessments and we will also start working on the Grade 2 curriculum.
In Language Arts we are implementing "Writers Workshop" which will be daily writing in which students will be taught how to write stories independently.
Few Reminders:
- Please send the supplies if you still havent. I need to have all the supplies as ordered in order to start using them. For example, a red folder will be used as the reading folder so make sure that you sent the right color. Thank you for all the parents that sent the supplies.
- Cafeteria: A note was sent home on Thursday regarding the cafeteria procedures. Children will not be allowed to buy by themselves, they have to give me the coupons at the beginning of the day.
- Food: Please do not send any chocolate or chips with your kids. This also includes cakes and Nutella sandwiches.
-Communication: The channel books are in printing so we should be getting them very soon. Please send me any note in the channel book it is my preferred method of communication. I will reply on the same day. As for emails ,it could take me two days to reply.
Thanks so much for your cooperation and Im looking forward to meeting you all.
