A BIT ABOUT ME - I have been teaching for 20 years. This is my 13th year at Hamilton. I have three adult children, two fabulous daughters-in-law and 2 precious granddaughters. This summer was relaxing. I spent most weekends with my family in LBI which is my "happy place". This week I worked in our classroom preparing for September. I can't wait to get started with our adventure in 1st grade.
SUPPLIES
Please send the following items in with your child during the first few days of school. **Please only label the folder, notebook and headphone bag with your child's name.
1. One box 24-count Crayola crayons
2. Two Elmers Glue Sticks
3. Four Dry Erase Markers (Black)
4. One (two pocket) folder
5. One Composition Notebook - Lined notebook, usually has black marble cover, but any color is fine.
6. Headphones - No earbuds please. Headphones must have a cord. Please put these in a bag with your student's name on it.
7. One box of tissues
ON THE 1ST DAY OF SCHOOL - Each student should bring:
* Backpack
* Change of Clothes - in a bag - it will be kept in school in case of an emergency
* Healthy Snack
* Lunch - bring a lunch from home or lunch may be purchased in the cafeteria
Getting to Know You - SHOW AND TELL - The first few days of school are spent getting to know classmates/teachers and learning the rules/procedures for 1st grade. During those first days, your little one will have an opportunity to SHOW their classmates something that is important to them and TELL their classmates about that item. For example, a student who loves to swim, might share goggles or a trophy. A student who has a favorite pet, might share a photo of their pet. A few students will share each day during the first weeks. Students should bring their Show and Tell in a bag with their name on it. They can bring it in whenever it's convenient.
I hope you enjoy the rest of the summer. If you have any questions or concerns please email me at [email protected]. I am excited about all of the fabulous things we will discover together this year. See you all soon.
Best regards,
