HOMEWORK
Your child will receive homework each night Monday through Thursday. They will be bringing their homework home in their homework binder- located in the pocket on the left side when you open it up. The homework will be reviewing the skills that we did in school during the week. One side of the binder is labeled “homework to do,” the other is labeled “keep at home’ which you can remove if it is in the back pocket of the binder.
SNACK
Please send in a HEALTHY snack for your child each day…(carrot sticks, apples, pretzels, granola bar, etc.) but NO DRINKS, please. (Water bottles are allowed during the hot months.) Please do not send water bottles filled with juice or pop. Please keep the snacks very simple and not messy. Your child will be working while they have their snacks. Due to the concerns about food allergies, I am unable to provide a snack for children who forget.
BIRTHDAYS
Your child’s birthday will be celebrated on the day of his/her birthday. If your child’s birthday is on the weekend, we will celebrate it on the Friday before, or the Monday after, whichever you choose. Summer birthdays will be celebrated in May and June. Please send in a birthday treat (NON-FOOD) with your child on the day of his/ her birthday if you choose to celebrate it in school. If your child brings in a treat that does not fit the new school guidelines/ no food policy, teachers are asked to send them back home with your child.
FRIDAY FOLDERS
Each Friday, the Friday Folders will be coming home. Most of your child’s work will be sent home (unless I am hanging it in the classroom!) along with important letters from the office. It is very important to make sure you look through this folder each weekend!
