Procedures
Monday/Thursday Home-School Folder
Your child will bring home a folder every Monday and Thursday. Please check both pockets of this folder for important school-wide information, classroom newsletters, homework and graded papers. It is your child’s responsibility to bring this folder home and return it to school the next day. Please use your child’s folder to send me notes, send lunch money envelopes to school, etc. I remind the students to check their folder when they arrive in the classroom.
Homework
Students will have weekly homework in Reading, Spelling and Math. Homework will come home in Monday and Thursday folders. A typical 1st grader should spend around 20 minutes completing homework. This includes independent reading, practicing spelling words and math homework. Students will also have occasional homework that relates to specific lessons in class. Homework is not intended as “busy work” but rather an extention of what is learned in class. Please return all homework by Friday unless otherwise specified.
Weekly Behavior Update
Every Thursday, a weekly behavior update will be updated in your child’s folder to keep you informed about your child’s behavior, responsibility, and work habits. Please initial that you have read it. It will be updated each 9 week period.
Money
Any money that is sent to school needs to be placed in the 5x7 envelope that was sent home on the first day. Please complete the information on the envelope. The envelope will be returned to you with my initials to show that the money was received. Please leave this envelope at home until it is necessary to send money.
Snacks
We will take a short break each afternoon for a snack. Please send snacks daily, ready to eat. We ask that snacks be nutritional, and that no candy be sent. Sometimes students get confused about what they brought for a snack vs. lunch. Please send only one snack item.
Lunch
Student lunches are $2.25. Also available are milk or juice ($.35).
Parents/family are welcome to eat with their child. Please remember to send a note or call the office in advance if you plan to order an adult cafeteria lunch. The cost for an adult lunch is $3.00, and it can be paid when you go through the lunch line that day or you can send it to school with your child. We arrive at the lunchroom after recess at about 11:10 each day. We return to our classroom around 11:30.
Birthdays
Parents are welcome to bring “birthday treats” (donuts, cupcakes, cookies, etc.) to school to celebrate their child’s birthday or ½ birthday if in the summer. We will enjoy the treats at 2:15. You may send the treats with your child, bring them to school in the morning, or bring them and join us for snack time. Please refrain from asking us to hand out birthday invitations unless ALL STUDENTS are invited. Thanks for helping us in this delicate matter! We don’t want any hurt feelings.
