December Reminders 2019

Good Evening!

This is a special shout out to the wonderful parents who sent in money contributions to Mrs. Gabriel in helping to get all of our ornament making supplies!! Students will be bringing home four ornaments (2 today and 2 right before the Holiday Break)! 😊 They are ADORABLE! Thanks so much for the parents who came in and volunteered: Kathryn Gabriel, Peta-Gaye Wright, and Christina Ellis! We would not have been able to do it without you!

*This is a special reminder that Field Trip forms and the money envelopes are due no later than next Friday! The money for the field trip goes towards the performers coming. They are fantastic! We have had them in the past, and the students love making connections.

*Also, if you are choosing to keep the holiday picture magnets sent home, please send the envelope back in with $12. If you are choosing not to keep the holiday picture magnets, please return them and I will put them in the box to go back to the picture company.

*Students will have DOUBLE Specials on Monday, so please have your child wear tennis shoes!

The students’ day to go shopping in the Santa Shop is Monday at 9:15am. If your child is purchasing anything from their Wish List in their red Homework Folder, please have them bring money and label the items on their envelope so we know what you would like them to use the money for. 😊

Have a great weekend!

Ms. Plumer

Good Afternoon!

Students are loving completing Math and Reading assignments on Education Galaxy in class! Your child can access it from home! Their Education Galaxy login information is located in the front of their planner.

Students were given a Reading Eggs Pretest today. Our school purchased a few more logins so our First Grade kiddos could use the reading site! I taped your child’s Reading Eggs login in the front of your child’s planner. This is another site your child can access at home to complete reading activities!

Every child is asked to read 20 minutes every night! Students can read books electronically as well! Our 2^nd 9 weeks reading goal is to read 20 books, and fill in our Apple Reading Log! 😊

Have a great week!

Good Evening, Parents!!

             We will begin using computers to take Reading and Math pre-assessments this week and next week. Your child will also need headphones for computer rotations in Reading and Math. If your child has not brought in headphones with their name on them, please have your child bring them in as soon as possible. 😊

        

Students will begin writing their Homework in their agendas this week, and bringing them to and from school daily. If your child has not brought in an agenda, please send in $5 with them, and they can purchase one in the front office. *Please remember, if you send in a note, please place it in your child’s Notes pocket in their red Homework Folder. Students have been taught to look there every morning. Please do not write a note for me in the student agendas. I would like to receive hard copy notes in their Notes pocket.

        

Students will bring home their Thursday Weekly Work folder every Thursday. Please review your child’s Behavior Sheet, sign it, and place it back in the “Return to School” pocket in your child’s Thursday Weekly Work Folder. This is where Behavior Sheets will stay. Please do not place them in your child’s red Homework Folder. Also, when your child’s Thursday Weekly Work folder comes home, please review the papers in the “Keep at Home” pocket, and remove them. That way our folders will be clean and ready for the next week.

 

*Please help your child review the papers in their Keep at Home pocket in their red Homework Folder daily, and remove them. You can do as you wish with these papers. This will help our folders to stay organized. 😊

 

Thank you so much for your support! I’m looking forward to another great week with your babies!

Ms. Plumer

Happy August!!

     
                                                             

Wow!! We have had a fantastic start to the year! We will continue reviewing classroom procedures and expectations this week, as well as pre-assessing to see what your babies know! Students will bring home their red Homework folder every night! Please remember to place any important notes, or changes of transportation in your child’s clear pocket in their red folder, labeled “Notes. The students have been taught to check their “Notes” pocket, and their “Return to School” pocket in their red Homework Folder every morning. Please be sure to review and take out the papers in the “Keep at Home” pocket every evening!

 

Last week, some students did not have a snack, or were unsure where their snack was. Please let your child know where their snack will be each day, or label it “Snack” if needed. The students have been taught to unpack their snack every morning, and place it in their cubby for easy access. Unfortunately, I do not have extra snacks to give students who forget to bring one.

 

This Thursday, students will bring home their “Weekly Work Folder”. This folder will come home every Thursday. It will contain important information from the office, your child’s weekly behavior sheet, their graded papers, and the Bi-Weekly Class Newsletter . *Please don’t forget to sign your child’s Weekly Behavior Sheet every Thursday evening, and take out any papers in the “Keep at Home” pocket.

 

If you have not already sent in the forms below, please do so as soon as possible. If you need another copy, please let me know. 😊

1. Cobb County Clinic Card (white)
2. Receipt of Family Information Guide (white)
3. Emergency Dismissal Form (green)

 

*I have inputted all the parent e-mails. If someone you know did not receive this e-mail and should have, please send me their e-mail address. I may have misread it. 😊
