WELCOME TO FIRST GRADE! 

 

I am delighted to have your child in my class this year! My name is Mrs. Fischer, and I have been teaching for thirty years, twenty-eight of those years in the Bridgewater-Raritan Regional School District. I have been working hard to prepare the classroom for all our learning adventures. I can’t wait to meet my new first graders next week!

 

I wanted to provide you with some information about our classroom B-9! Below is the daily schedule:

• Arrive/Unpack/Morning Work

• Morning Meeting/Calendar

• Phonics

• Reading

• Writer’s Workshop

• Social Studies/Science

• Recess/Lunch

Here is a link to the supply list on the JFK Primary School Website: School Supplies

Students may bring water bottles into school that are labeled and can be closed properly to prevent spills. We will have a snack each afternoon. Please send in a healthy, nut free snack that can be eaten quickly and cleaned up easily.  Here are a few suggestions: fruit, drinkable yogurt, cheese sticks, crackers, pretzels, muffins. Please remember to provide any spoons, forks, straws, etc. needed for snack.

 

Additionally, here is our special’s schedule:

Monday	Music
Tuesday	Technology & PE
Wednesday	Library & Art
Thursday	PE
Friday	PE

 

*Please return library books on Wednesdays.

 

Your child will receive a Take Home Folder starting on the first day of school. It will contain any homework, completed class work, and/or important papers for your review. Please remember to check and empty your child’s folder every night as well as make sure it is returned to school each day.

 

If you ever have any questions or concerns please feel free to email me:   [email protected] 

 

I am looking forward to working with you and your child as we begin this exciting journey of first grade!

 

Warmly,

Connie Fischer
