First Week Update

 Hello Families!

What a great first week we had!  I can’t say enough how proud I am of each and every one of my students for how they handled the “new normal” of school. 

We have been busy learning new routines and getting to know each other.  Here are just a few things I’d like to update you on.

 

Picture Day

Picture day is this THURSDAY.  Come wearing your best smile!

Indoor Shoes

If you haven’t sent in a pair of indoor running shoes for your child, please do so ASAP.  

Masks:

All my Grade 1s have done a great job remembering to bring and wear their masks.  While it is a work in progress, we are making this a huge priority and things are going well.  If you don’t already have a system set up, it would be very helpful if your child brings 2 masks each day (just in case one gets extra dirty or wet etc.) and has a pouch or baggie in their backpack in which to place masks that are to be washed.  (I bought my own daughter two small pencil cases from the dollar store and we marked one CLEAN and one DIRTY).  Also, please be aware that all MMH students received the same masks to take home, so marking them with a name would be very helpful. 

Birthdays:

If you would like to send a birthday treat in for our class on your child’s birthday, you are more than welcome but it must be a nut free PRE-PACKAGED snack.  Thanks so much.

NUT AWARE:

We have a student in our class this year with a nut/tree nut allergy.

Agendas and Student Profile Sheet:

Please send the Student Profile Sheet back at your earliest convenience.  Agendas should be checked and signed at home each day and will be checked by me each day as well.  While we won’t be writing much at first, we will very quickly be writing often in our agendas.  Thanks!

Pre-Existing Conditions:

Please let me know ASAP via email if your child has a pre-existing condition that may cause them to show “symptoms” of any kind.  ie: asthma, allergies…  These will be recorded and a list kept in the office.

 

Have a safe and wonderful long weekend!  See you Tuesday!
