Welcome to Room 11/12

      We have lots of fun planned for this school year! To have a great year, we really want to get to know you and your family. Please send a family picture either by email to cwhite@olpls.org or chall@olpls.org on our first day of school. There will be many opportunities to incorporate our families in our classroom. We need classroom parents to help organize our holiday parties! If interested, you can sign-up at the front office to be a “Room Parent”.

      Morning routine is an important way to start the day. There is a sign-in for your child by the classroom door, please take a moment to have your child sign in and move their name card from “Home” to “School” on the chart on the door every morning. Please make drop-off short and sweet after sign-in. We are getting prepared for kindergarten, so we advise allowing your child to know that they can be safe and comfortable by your display of confidence in drop-offs. Our large and small group learning activities will take place before 10:00am every day, so please have your child in attendance to participate in these activities.

       On Wednesdays, beginning September 11th, we will be attending Mass. Please have your child here on Wednesdays by 7:45am so that we can all leave together and find our seats without a disruption in the church.
 
      Finally, we have plenty of toys and games in our classroom. We ask that you please leave personal items at home. No toys should be brought to school unless indicated by Ms. Caitlin or Ms. Char for lesson purposes. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

 

Parents,
 
          Beginning Monday, August 26^th, we will have a “Letter of the Week”. Students will bring in an item from home that begins with the letter of the week. Ziploc bags will be put in your child’s folder every Friday to take home and bring back on Monday with the item in that Ziploc bag. The item MUST be small enough to fit in the bag. We have 21 students and have limited space in the classroom to display all items. We will be learning letters out of order so that students learn to identify letters and not just memorize them. The “Letter of the Week” will be written on the Ziploc bag, posted on our webpage, and included in the Weekly Newsletter. If you have any questions please email Ms. Caitlin (cwhite@olpls.org) or Ms. Char (chall@olpls.org ).
 
Thank you,
Ms. Caitlin & Ms. Char
