First Grade 2017-2018 School Year

Hello Neuse families!

If you are here from the school website, welcome to my first grade classroom! Please take a minute to look around and acquaint yourself with how I run my classroom. If you notice, I stopped posting in January. My families and I decided that it was easier to email information for the rest of the year instead of putting it on the blog. This year, I will be blogging every week AND also sending weekly emails to let you know of any updates happening in my classroom. I will also begin posting pictures and activities throughout the year to show what we are doing in our classroom. In the beginning of the year packet, I will be sending home a photo release for my blog. Please remember that I will NOT post names with these pictures.

Supply lists have been posted online. You may click on the Supply List tab up on top of the blog for information. I added a few items that are specific to my classroom. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me!

I am SO excited for this coming new year and I can't wait to meet you and your child! The first day of school will be August 14, 2017. Meet the teacher night will be held August 10, 2017. As we get closer to the date I will also post the time. This night is a chance for you and your child to come and orient yourself with my classroom and to fill out any paperwork that I have. This is also a GREAT time to bring in all of your school supplies. I recommend to bring them in a box or paper bag with your child's name on the outside. We use community supplies in my classroom so names are not necessary on the items. Any items that are specific for Specials, place items in separate bags and deliver them to each specific classroom. If they are left in our classroom, they tend to be mixed in with our supplies. Especially if they are not labeled with the teachers name.  Thank you and I look forward to meeting your student!
