   Welcome to First Grade! I hope you and your family are having an enjoyable summer.  I am so excited that you are in my class this year.  We are going to have a terrific year filled with rewarding learning experiences and lot of fun too!  

 

  On the first day of school, we will be playing fun games to get acquainted with each other and getting to know our school and our classroom!  It will be a rewarding experience to get to know your child and their classmates.  

 

We will have a working snack time every day beginning on the first day of school.  It is important that students bring a healthy snack that they are able to eat quickly and independently.  If you are able to supply extra snack for our classroom, it will be greatly appreciated as students often forget their snacks. Students may also keep a reusable water bottle in the classroom! 

 

Please note the Adamsville School policy regarding birthday celebrations.  Food may no longer be brought in to school to celebrate birthdays.  The policy can be found in the Adamsville Student Handbook. Further, please make sure that we know about your plans for dismissal via a written note or email if your child is not riding the bus.  If your child is a bus rider, he or she must go home on the bus unless you send in a note to change the dismissal procedure. Your note should include your child's last name and my name so that it can be submitted to the office. 

 

Below is a list of optional school supplies that you can purchase to be used at school. Again, please note that the items below are suggested materials/supplies only.  I have homework folders for each student so you do not need to purchase one! :) 

 

 

 

  • Headphones to keep at school for the year (please put in a ziplock bag with child's name)

  • Soft Tissues

  • 24 Pack of Pencils 

  • Elmer's Glue Sticks 

  • Crayola Crayons

  • Multi Cultural crayons
  • Pencil Erasers

  • EXPO markers (low odor) 

  • Ziplock bags (assorted sizes)

 

 

I hope to see you at our Open House on Tuesday, Septmeber 3rd from 2:00 -2:45 pm! Our first day of school is on Wednesday, September 4th and I can't wait!!! Thank you in advance for your cooperation and support.  I am looking forward to meeting you and working with you for a successful school year!
