A few things to get us started:
- Please check this blog every Monday for the latest update. It will include curriculum information and events for the week. If it helps, you can get email reminders by clicking the link and signing up to be notified when there is a new post. If there is an extra post in a week, there will be a note about it in the agenda. Please take a minute to explore the blog to find out the tools and resources I have available.
- Speaking of the agenda, this is another very important tool. Your child will write to you every day with reminders and notes. Please read and sign the agenda every single day and encourage your child to be responsible for having it at school every morning.
- Please sign up for Remind. A letter went home today about this excellent communication tool. It will allow us to communicate quickly and efficiently. The letter also includes other ways to communicate with me.
- Your child has homework! Sorry, I know that's just cruel handing out homework on the very first day, but this is cool! Every student gets to have a leadership role in our classroom by being part of a team. The homework is to read the information about the teams and fill out the application form. These forms are due on Friday so that we can get going right away with our routines.
- We have a Welcome Back assembly on Friday at 8:40. Parents are always very welcome to join us for these occasions.
- Another date to put into your calendars right away is Sept. 14 - our Welcome Back BBQ and Meet the Teacher Night. I can't wait to give you some more information about Grade 4 including homework expectations, home reading, incentives, field trips and more.
- Follow us on Twitter @nelsonclassgr4.
I think that's probably enough information for now! If you have any questions or would just like to introduce yourself, please send me a Remind message, email me at kristy.nelson@lethsd.ab.ca or phone me at the school at 403-327-3653.
