Dear Families,Welcome to a new school year! My name is Theresa Fox (Mrs. Fox in the classroom) and I am thrilled to be your child's teacher this year. We are also lucky to have Mrs. Joslyn as another teacher in our room again this year.
Together this week we'll be exploring many areas and materials in our classroom through guided discovery. We'll be working on a fun project with our classroom materials to help learn more about each other too.
Just a few things to keep in mind for the first week of school:
Please remember to send in a peanut and tree nut free snack for your child to eat in our classroom each morning. Your child may have peanuts or tree nuts at lunch while sitting at the designated nut table.
Picture day is this Thursday, September 1st. The form should be coming home today. Send it in by Thursday if you want to order school pictures! If you don't want to order pictures, your child will still have a picture taken for his/her lunch card as well as our class photo.
Please note that our class has P.E. on Mondays and Wednesdays. Students must have sneakers for all P.E. classes! Please either send sneakers in on these days or leave a pair of sneakers in your child's cubby. Students also need secure footwear for recess each day (sneakers or sandals that strap on -- not flip flops).
There will be lots of mail going home this week--I know this can be overwhelming with so many forms to fill out. Thanks in advance for your quick turn around on all the paperwork for the office and myself! On Friday I'll send home our classroom informational letter. Please send me an email ASAP so I have your preferred contact information. I will send you a link to our class blog each Friday so you can read all about our week and classroom news.
My email is tfox@u32.org
That's all for now. I look forward to the rest of this first week with our new class and to working with all of you this school year.
~Theresa Fox
