Dear Parents,
We had a great first two days together in third
grade!! This is a wonderful group of kids who seem ready and eager to
learn. It was fun to learn about each other through the sharing of the
All About Me bags. Building community is an important part of these first
few weeks of school. This sharing assignment allows us to realize some of
our similarities and differences.
I will be writing newsletters to update you on
what’s happening in our classroom, give reminders about upcoming events, and to
share any news we might have. I plan to email the newsletters as well as
post them on my website so you will be able to access them at any time during
the year if needed. www.mrsgalt.blogspot.com
Reminders:
Snacks:
Students will have snack each day in the
morning. I do not provide snack so please be sure to send a healthy snack with
your child.
Volunteers:
Thank you to the volunteers who signed up at
Open House. Your help is greatly appreciated. Please make sure you have
been cleared by BVSD to volunteer before joining us in the classroom.
If you signed up for Book Box reading time, you can start coming the week
of August 31st. Book box time runs from 12:00-12:30. We
still need a room parent. This job can be shared! Please email me
if you are willing to take this job. Thank you!
Homework:
Next week, students will be responsible for
completing a mystery state assignment for homework. This assignment will
be given on Monday and is due on Friday. We will complete a weekly
reading log in class next week, so that students have a good model for what is
expected on the reading log. During the week of August 31st, students will be assigned a
reading log, mystery state, and math for homework. Short math assignments
are given on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday and are due the next day.
Important Dates for Your Calendar:
Thursday, September 3- Picture Day
Monday, September 7- NO SCHOOL- Labor Day
Please let me know if you have any questions or
concerns. The best way to contact me is by email (aisha.galt-theis@bvsd.org).
Have a wonderful weekend.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Aisha Galt
