The Week of August 7th

The Blue Jays Weekly Newsletter

We have had an amazing start to our school year! Children have been learning procedures and working on many grace and courtesy lessons. These skills are the key to a peaceful, independent group of children.  The children are making strong connections with each other and this week we will be working on the first great lesson: The Coming of the Universe!  This is a wonderful way to spark curiosity in the classroom.


The children are excited to serve their snacks and clean up afterwards.  If you have not already done so, please send in a Kroger gift card for healthy snack selections.  $30 for the semester or $60 for the year.  Also, if you would like to help with the shopping for snacks, please send a Remind or email and we can send a card home for you to use to shop over the weekend for the following week. 




It is very important that all families sign up for our community Remind!  Please text @ac3c9 to number 81010 or if you are having trouble with 81010 try texting @ac3c9 to 971-239-4842  (Please sign up!)




The classrooms can be cool at times.  It is a great idea to send a sweater or sweatshirt, labeled your child's on the tag, in their bookbag. According to administration, students will not be allowed to wear hoodies in school.


Please send in a water bottle labeled with your child's name for them to keep at school throughout the week for when they get thirsty.  The weather is HOT and the children can become extremely thirsty at recess and throughout the day. 

 

Please be sure to login to PowerSchool and sign your student's technology permission slip.  You may also want to purchase a protection plan.  It is highly recommended that the computers remain at school where they can remain fully charged and ready for use each day at school.


This year, the children will be traveling to explorations on Tuesday mornings.  Be sure to send your child to school in shoes that will work well for them in P.E.  For those new to the school, the children have art, music, PE, Spanish, Technology, and Engineering with the exploration teachers in one morning each week.
