Welcome to our First Grade Web Page

I hope you find this helpful throughout the year.

Thank you for comming in to meet with me for parent-teacher conferences. I 
enjoyed seeing all of you and appreciate all of your support.  

*******Per School Policy, lunches brought in from fast food places such as 
McDonalds and Burger King and Portillios are not permitted.*******

****Please make sure you look through your child's take home folder every 
night. Sometimes they will have notes or homework that needs to be 
completed.  
 

*We are in need of small, inexpensive prizes for our prize bucket! Please 
donate if you can!

*No water bottles are to be brought to school if the temperature is under 80 
degrees. Thank you for your cooperation.

Show and Tell- We will be doing SHOW AND TELL in the morning on Monday thru 
Thursday. Your child can bring in something ONE time each week.He or She 
doesn’t have to participate every week. The Student of the week is 
in charge of Show and Tell for that week. 

D.E.A.R. - Drop Everything And Read: The entire school participates in this 
after lunch. Your child will need several books from home to read during 
these 15 minutes after lunch (12:00-12:15). Please make sure they have books 
to read during this time. On Friday’s our class has D.E.A.R. with a friend. 
The children enjoy this time to share books with their classmates in small 
groups of two or three. 

We will be doing an estimating jar every week. The person with the closest 
guess will take the jar home on Friday to be filled for Monday. The items in 
the jar will be passed out on Friday. Please remember no peanut products. 

Please e-mail me with any questions or concerns.
