FAQFrequently Asked Questions: This page contains answers to common questions of students and parents.
How do you celebrate birthdays for children in the classroom? Each child receives a book and birthday sticker for his/her birthday from me! We also sing "Happy Birthday" to the birthday child! You can send in treats if you like, but district policy states that they be "store-bought" treats. I think the birthday child and class would really enjoy it if you would like to send in treats, but it is not a "must" at all! We will celebrate "half" birthdays beginning in January. June birthdays will be celebrated on the same date in January, July birthdays in February,and August birthdays in March. What kind of sleep-mat does my child need? I recommend that your child bring either a bath-size towel or a king-size pillow case. Either of these will fit easily in his/her cubby, and is easy to fold and put away. Please no pillows because we just do not have a place to keep them! I will send their "sleep things" home on Friday, and then they can bring them back on Monday--fresh and clean! What kind of snacks are appropriate for school? We ask that the children bring one healthy snack, and a drink if they want. These will go in their cubby, and will have to be eaten and put away in about ten-to-fifteen minutes. How can I help in the classroom? PTO helps us coordinate Parent Readers and our holiday parties. I also use helpers during our small group reading time. It is a big help as I work with small reading groups to have a parent to help students working independently. I also have items that can be worked on at home and returned with your child. As the year progresses, we will need help with special theme events and large projects. ANY HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED! |
