Good Evening,
For those who were able to attend, thank you for attending the conferences last week. For those who couldn't, no worries. I hope you found the video I sent informative enough to describe what we did at conferences. Please don't forget to send a family picture and a picture of your pet(s) or favorite toy. Also, don;t forget your reusable grocery bag. I will collect all of this on the 1st day.

The first day of school is always an exciting time and I am sure there are some nerves and lots of questions in your child's mind. The 1st two days will be used to learn names, getting to know each other and to develop an atmosphere that feels "fun" for your child. We are creating a "Twitter" bulletin board where kids will create their own handle and create written tweets about their first few days. I will make sure to send pictures.
The best thing you can do for your child, especially for those who are nervous, is to make sure the following is clear for them:
*Do they need school snack and/or lunch?
*Do they have a water bottle, labeled?
*Do they know their after school plans?
Your child knowing the answers to these three questions will go a long way in easing their minds on the 1st day.
That is all for now. If you haven't subscribed/followed the blog yet, please watch the following video to learn how.
I am looking forward to a great year.
Peace,
Tommy
