***PLEASE NOTE***

If your child stays for extended care he/she must have a separate DISPOSABLE snack and water bottle in a brown paper bag labeled with their name on it.  If your child does not stay regularly please send a note in the morning letting me know they will be staying that day.

 

 

 

This week we will be introduced to writing "pull down" and "slide" lines.  These are the basic prewriting strokes that we need to work with to help learn proper formation of letters.  

 

 We will continue to focus on recognizing and writing their names. I encourage students to continue to practice at home and we introduced the boys and girls to the proper way to hold and cut with scissors. If you have child safe scissors please practice using them at home. They can snip scrap paper, straws, playdough, etc. I always tell them thumbs must face the sky.  

 

 

Communication is very important to your child's success. Please feel free to contact me at the above email at any time if you have any questions or concerns.  I will not be able to get back to you until the end of the school day, which is after 3pm.

 

LUNCH

 

Please send in a lunch that you child is able to finish on their own.  Be sure to send their lunch with two napkins; we use one for a placemat and one is to be used when they finish their lunch.

 

RECESS

 

We will go out for recess everyday unless it is too cold or raining. Please have your child dressed appropriately for the weather and always wear closed toe shoes.  If your children come to school with rain or snow boots, they need to have shoes to change into for the day.

 

We are looking forward to a great year!!

 

Warm Regards,

Mrs. Borrino
