Today your child received their first library book. Please do one page in the library cahier–in pencil only. Also let your child copy and print out the title and author’s name, and have them circle whether the book was excellent, medium or terrible. You can fill in the comment area by stating what your child thinks of the book. As the year goes on, your child should be able to do the printing in the comment area, or in fact, fill it in themselves. Please use both sides of the paper for the entries as we would like this cahier to last all year long. Please review the notice that you got on meet the teacher night for more details. Please help your child to remember to bring their library bag, book and cahier always on Mondays.
Also your child received their ‘devoirs’–homework cahier today. Please have your child do all the work in pencil only–they will need your guidance of course. When necessary, please have them colour in crayons or pencil crayons only–no felts please–they have a nasty habit of bleeding through the pages. Your child will probably be excited to do their homework–if they are not, please have them hand it in at least once per week. It’s good practise for their fine motor skills and reinforces things we are working on in the classroom. You can also check the same letter mentioned above that you received on meet the teacher night to get more details about the homework cahier.
Don’t forget about our Terry Fox run tomorrow and your child’s toonie if they haven’t already handed it in.
Merci!
Mme Clarke
