WELCOME TO FIRST GRADE!!
Our class will use be using the app/website "Bloomz" for communication. Please contact Mrs. Bane if you need a form with directions to sign up. This website will not be updated throughout the year. ***Reminders*** Take Home Book Bags Each week your child will bring home a bag of "Take home" books to read throughout the week. We are so excited to be able to provide this for all of our kids! This is just a reminder to please send the bag back to school every Friday with their practice packet and we will send home a new set of books. Please try your best to send home your bag on time so we can have enough to send a new bag with each child. Thanks! ***If your child has a bag of books that states it needs to be read and brought back each day, then they will not have the bag above. :) P.E. This is just a reminder that we have P.E. on Wednesday and your child needs to wear tennis shoes to participate in all the fun activities. Thank you for helping us keep them safe! :) Safety Every day the weather is appropriate, we will try to go outside. We want to make sure children are wearing appropriate shoes and clothing to be safe. This is just a reminder that if children in grades k-2 wear sandals, they need to have a strap on the back. They also need to be wearing socks if they are open toe. Thanks for the help! Snacks This is just a reminder that your child needs a healthy snack each day. We eat snacks in the morning to help us have the energy to make it through a day of 1st grade performing at our very best! Thanks! P.E. Our P.E. day is on Wednesday. Please make sure your child is wearing tennis shoes and comfortable clothing. Bookflix In the computer lab we use a really neat website that your child can use at home. On this website there are many popular books and literacy games for your child. Our PTO purchased a membership to this great program, so I thought I would share the information to use at home. To visit the website, go to Google and type in "Bookflix login" and click the first search result. Then, use the username and password below. Enjoy! username: fknobs password: bookflix Friends and Family Board Just a reminder that we have a "Family and Friends" board in our classroom to help us feel safe and calm. We really enjoy looking at these pictures throughout the day. If you have not sent in a picture of your family, we would love to hang one on our board! This does not have to be a professional picture...any picture is great. I would also recommend it be a copy of the picture because they will be hanging in a high traffic area. :) Important ***Attendance Line It is very helpful to the office for you to please call the attendance line if your child is going to be absent. This also saves you from getting a call from school. :) The attendance line number is 812-542-6501. Thanks so much! |
