It’s
been fun getting to know your children this week. We have spent the last couple days doing
friendship activities, learning the SOAR rules for our school, and practicing classroom
procedures. We began our first unit in
Reading Streets, completed our first two math lessons, and learned new math
games. We read one of my favorite books,
Chrysanthemum, by Kevin Henkes, and
did some activities with our names. It’s
been a busy week!
Thank
you to those of you who returned the school and class information pages and the
emergency preparedness kits. If you
haven’t had a chance to do that yet, please return them next week. We would love to have all our Sunrise
families join the PTA. We are having a
school-wide contest, and the class with the most memberships will win a prize
basket!
Thank
you to all of you who have been signing your child’s planner each night. Students will be expected to have their
planners signed and returned every day.
It is a great organizer and communication tool.
I
will be sending home a homework packet on Monday. Please have your child complete it throughout
the week and return it by Friday. It
should not take more than fifteen minutes each night. I will give you more information at Back to
School Night this Thursday, but you can email me or call me if you have any
questions.
I’m
looking forward to seeing you Thursday, August 28 at 6:30 for Back to School
Night. I will give you more information at
that time.
Enjoy
your weekend!
