August 24, 2009

Welcome to a new first grade class!

Today was a wonderful day! I am excited to have so many smart kiddos. We are getting used to new schedules in first grade: this year our enrichment time is from 10:10 to 10:55, and then we go to lunch at 11:13 to 11:43.... it's all new for the teachers, as well. We had a fire drill and all went well, and dismissal was pretty smooth. In the interest of making each academic minute count, please do not come down the first grade hallway before 3! I will lead the class to the cafeteria at 2:55 and parents can meet us there.
Someday this week, most likely tomorrow, your child will bring home a big manila packet. The contents are very important. Please fill out the information and return to school by Friday at the latest. The lunch form must be filled out....or just write N/A and sign, but do return it.
You should be receiving a yellow parent handbook which covers school policies, birthdays, etc. Keep it handy!
I would like to post class info here, at least once or twice a week. It would help me at this point if you could take the time to e-mail me at jjacks25@houstonisd.org to let me know you've found my blog. I don't want to assume everyone is getting the info. Communication, communication!! This is a new address for me...so please disregard jbadawi@houistonisd.org anywhere you may see it.
Tomorrow is another day! I'm looking forward to it.
See you soon !
Ms J
