Please feel free to send a treat in with your child. All birthday treats must be store bought. Please include enough treats for all 22 students. Also, please send me an email or note prior to sending a treat so I can plan accordingly. • If your child has allergies and you would like to provide some safe & special treats for me to hang on to in the classroom for other students birthdays, please let me know.

  9. Classroom Procedures • Take Home Folders • Please check your child’s take home folder each night. If you have any messages for me, please send it in the take home folder. • Rest Time • Please continue to send in a towel or blanket each Monday. We will return it on Friday for you to wash it over the weekend. • Book Orders • Book orders will be sent home once a month. You do not have to purchase any books!

  10. Thank You For Coming! • My goal for this year is to instill a love of learning in each of my students. I want them to grow both personally and academically throughout the year! Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to teach your child!
