Curriculum Night is Thursday October 9th from 6:45-7:30 for fifth grade families. Also, if you have not yet signed up for a September Chat, please email me or send in a note if you would like to schedule a time. It has been such a wonderful opportunity to meet all of the parents that have come in so far, and I am really looking forward to meeting those who will be coming in soon! Thank you for a great start to the year, and I am looking forward to seeing you on October 9th!
Listed below is the schedule of our specials throughout the year. We will also have library one Thursday each month. Tuesday: Writer's Workshop (in our class) Wednesday: Gym (please bring sneakers) Thursday: Music Friday: Art Dear parents/guardians,
Our first week was a success! We are off to a great start here in room 25B, and it’s only the beginning! Over the past three days we invested some quality time in getting to know one another, and we discovered that we have a talented and diverse classroom. We also established classroom routines and explored the classroom itself, learning everything from how to feed the fish to where to pass in assignments. I wanted to take this opportunity to introduce our class website to you. It can be found at http://mrsbrooksgrade5.weebly.com/. I will be using the blog to post updates on our classroom activities throughout the year. Students will also post the nightly homework on this site so that assignments are always accessible. The site also provides links to other educational sites that students will be using for skills practice throughout the year. The calendar is a work in progress, but please feel free to explore! I also want to encourage you to contact me if you have any questions or concerns throughout the year. My preferred method of contact is email ([email protected]), but I can return phone calls or notes as well. Please detach the section below with any email addresses you would like me to use email to contact you as well. Thank you again for a great first week. I am really looking forward to the rest of the year! I have found that The Cove is a wonderful school to be a part of, and I want to thank all of you for welcoming me so warmly! I hope that your son/daughter has felt welcomed to our classroom as well, and I look forward to working with you throughout the school year. Sincerely Mrs. Brooks |
