Communication Folder
Your
child will bring their Communication Folder home each
Friday. You should look over any papers that are
inside. Let your child know that you are excited and
interested in what they are doing. Don't forget to
sign the folder and send it back to school on Monday.
Homework
Folders
Homework
folders will be sent home each day that there is an assignment. I
have only prepared one folder for each student, so I encourage everyone
to take very good care of it. Be sure to complete and return the
assignment the next school day. Ask someone in your family to help
you only if you need it.

Medication
Please
fill out the Medical Information card that will be kept on file in our
Nurse's Office. This information must be on record before
medication can be administered to your child. If your child needs
to take medicine during the school day, please send the medication in
the original container with a note stating the dosage and time.
Teachers can not give any medication without a written request.

Snack/Candy Store
Snacks
and drinks may be purchased at school for 50¢
each.
You
may also choose to bring a snack from home. Students can bring
snacks on a daily basis or bring enough for an entire week. Many parents
send five individually wrapped snacks in a large Ziploc bag to ensure
that their child has something each day. Our class eats
at 11:30 each day and by the
end of the day everyone is ready for a snack.

Library
Books
You
will need to complete a Library Permission Slip before your child can
check out a book. Our class goes to the Media Center each week.
1st Grade students may check books out on a daily basis. Reading
is one of the easiest things you can do with your child to contribute to
their success. Mrs. Pickett teaches us to treat our library books
like we would treat babies. As always, any damages must be paid
for, so encourage your child to take good care of their library book.

Money
It
will be necessary for your child to bring money to school throughout
the year. You can help make our classroom run smoothly and prevent a
possible error by taking time to include the following somewhere on an
envelope:
1. Your child's first and last name,
2. the amount of money,
3. the purpose for the money (snack, lunch, book orders, field trips,
etc.), and
4. your teacher's name.
