Dear Parents;
Welcome to our exciting year in our grade one
classroom!! I am so thrilled to teach your child this year and we have an amazing
group of students. I have 25 beautiful
students.
As a team, parents and teachers work together to
help your child succeed and grow, so if you have any concerns please write
notes in the agenda or phone me at school anytime and I will get back to you as
soon as I can.
Some points to help your child this year:
1.
AGENDAS-Please initial the
agenda and send it back to school EVERY morning. This is our communication tool. Once we start
home reading it also comes back every day.
2.
BAG OF CLOTHES- please send a
labelled bag with extra clothes in case your child gets wet and needs a change
of clothes. We will leave them hanging
on their hooks.
3.
READ, READ, READ- We will start
home reading in October. Please read to your child and have them read to
you. Strong readers make strong writers! Please feel free to read to your child in
YOUR language.
4.
MEETING DOOR- Most of you know that our class comes
out the north door on the tarmac. Our
class will line up in front of these doors each morning and at recess. This is where you can meet your child after
school.
5.
LABEL- Please label ALL of your
child’s things.eg. coats, boots, shoes and backpack.
6.
TALK- Please talk to your child
about their day and ask them to think of 2 great things that happened in the
day. Also, often they will tell YOU of a
problem they have had,and I am not aware of it.
Please ALWAYS come to me with concerns or problems that your child has.
7.
BIRTHDAYS- We always celebrate
birthdays but please NO cupcakes, cakes or treats as we are a healthy choices
school. Other options could be fruit,
yogurt tubes, stickers or pencils.
8.
LUNCH- OLG is a nut free school
so please do not send any nut
products for lunches or snacks.
We are also teaching the students about nutrition and the best learning
happens with nutritious food. All garbage
will come home to you to recycle, compost or throw out. Thank you!
9.
SNACKS- Please send 2 snacks with
your child, each day! We are a healthy choices school. Please try to send healthy snacks as often as
possible.
10.SCHOOL
SAFETY-. Over the next few weeks we will be discussing and practicing
fire drill routines. It is often helpful if you discuss this with your child at
home as it is sometimes a worrisome topic for some students. Also we ask parents to NOT park in the
parking lot.
11.DRESSING-
Please remember to send your child dressed appropriately for the weather. Students go outside to play during recess and
lunch and need to have proper clothing for the weather.
12.TREASURE
BOX- I have a treasure box with small toys
as rewards. If you have any toys you are
no longer playing with, or McDonald toys lying around, I will put them into our
box. Just send them to school.
13.Volunteering-
All volunteers MUST attend volunteer orientation before helping in any school
activity. There are many opportunities
to volunteer in grade one. More information in October as volunteers will start
then.
We are going to have a
great year!!
