Great news: we are happy to announce that our field trip to the zoo is definitely going to take place! We had a few 1st grade parents who were very generous with their donations and covered the deficit. Thank you so much! We are still planning on leaving for Hogle Zoo at 8:45 on Tuesday, September 8th. 🙂
We have LOTS of parent volunteers so thank you for helping out. Please remember to have your child wear a RED shirt with their uniforms. This will help us keep track of our students. Also parents who are volunteering if you could bring a backpack to pack all of the students lunches in your group that would be great. With all of our volunteers you should only have about (about) 3 students in a group with two volunteers. Parents please pack your child a lunch in a DISPOSABLE bag so that they can eat their lunch and throw it all away so we don’t have extra baggage. Also remember nothing that needs to be refridgerated.
HOMEWORK: Please check the homework section on the blog. I am posting a syllabus so you know what homework to do for what week. If there are any changes from the syllabus I will let you know. I decided with a short week and the field trip to make next week a reading week. I will be sending home fluency passages with instructions for reading with your child. We have been practicing in class so they should know how to do it on their own.
Thanks!
