Dear Roadrunner and Shark Families,
Welcome! We are excited to start a new school year and begin our journey through non-stop hands on knowledge! A copy of this year’s school curriculum and class schedule will be sent home tomorrow Thursday (Sept. 4) in your student’s homework folder.
Reading homework will be sent home this week. The reading assignment must be done aside an adult who can assist with vocabulary/pronunciation and question for comprehension, parts of speech, characters, etc. Please sign the post-it on the inside of the book stating your child read to you. Their reading books need to be returned each day and remain in the Ziploc throughout travel. (Thank you for helping keep our materials new!)
A few quick reminders: Roadrunners and Sharks start their day at 8:30. It is extremely important they arrive on time in order to participate during Calendar. Calendar is an essential review of the Math skills and the vocabulary being taught each day. Be sure to pack a nutritious lunch for your student; include an item of protein, fruits and vegetables and a non-sugar drink. Synapses in your child’s brain depend on this…and learning! (We’ll handle the learning, you handle the nutrition. We’re already working as a team, looks like it’s going to be a great year!)
For the first month of school, the Roadrunners and Sharks will be combined into one classroom. Ms. Crispen will be teaching Calendar, Reading, Phonics and Math throughout this month. Ms. Swimeley will be implementing Writing/Theme and Ms. Pranke will be exploring Science with the students.
We are looking forward to a healthy and stimulating school year!
