Work Plans/Learning Plans

Parents,

I forgot to send home the Snack Schedule today...so sorry!  We will send it tommorow.  Today we began our work plans.  The students are responsible for working independently on their plans throughout the day.  Students should complete at least 5 works a day to stay on schedule.  Our 1st and 2nd levels had no problems staying on task, some of our 3rd levels however spent a lot more time socializing rather than working.  Please talk to your children about the importance of using our time effectively.  All papers and the work plans will be sent home on Mondays for parents to sign and look over.  Thanks,

Mrs. B

Reminder- We have Art/Music on Tuesdays at 9:45 and we have Computer, PE, and Library/Guidance on Wednesdays.

Week 2

Parents,

I will be sending a snack schedule home this week that goes through Christmas.  Mrs. Harris asked us to remind parents to try to bring healthy snacks for the classroom.  She also wanted us to remind our parents that fast food is not allowed in the building at any time.  Also, if you are checking your child out early, you must do so before 2:45.

This week we will start working on our lessons and workplans/learning plans.  These will come home on Friday for you to review and sign.

Day 4

This morning we are creating portraits of our life:)

And we were entertained by music:)

Day 3

Today we completed our ABC books, had library, PE, and computer lab! The kids had lots of fun:).  We have decided as a class that to preserve the peaceful learning environment we will only have ice cream at lunch on Fridays.  Students can purchase ice cream for $0.75.

Day 2

Today we continued to work on our ABC books,went over rules and procedures, and practiced working independently with our Montessori materials.  The students did great!  Tomorrow we have computer lab, PE, and library.  If your child does not have a pair of headphones, feel free to send some tomorrow for them to use in computer lab.  I am enjoying getting to know all of your children:)

Day 1

We had a great first day of school!  Today we went over rules and procedures, created illustrations of rules, and started working on an alphabet book.  We also had an opportunity to have lunch together and go out for recess:). We will continue to talk about rules and procedures throughout the week, with an emphasis on being courteous, respectful, and effective in the classroom.

First Week of School

Parents,

The 1/2 day of school went very well; everyone seemed to settle in nicely!  Your child may have made it home with a brown paper bag that they decorated.  If they did, they can put something or multiple things in the bag that represent themselves and we will share with the class Monday morning.  This is not an extensive project, it can be as simple as a family photo or their favorite toy.  This week we will be working on procedures such as, lunch choice, eating breakfast, walking down the hallway, restoring our environment, raising our hands to speak, practicing our sign language, gathering on the carpet, etc..  We will be sending home folders tomorrow with info from the office and an info sheet from me to be filled out whenever you have time. :)  I also wanted to introduce my children that will be a Bemis this year: Gavin, Glory, Gracie, and Gibson.  They also have a little brother Griffin that is 1 year old :)
