Family Posters
If your child still has the poster that was sent home at the beginning of the year and would still like to create an all about me poster, please send it in anytime next week. We will be working on these in class next week if you have not made one at home. Please email me a couple of pictures of your child and I will print them off for their poster. I am excited to hang these around our classroom!

IMPORTNANT REMINDERS!
Masks
Masks must be worn by all students all day. Please make sure to send your child with one mask on their face and AN EXTRA ONE IN THEIR BOOK BAG. We also ask that you work with them at home and talk about this daily to help encourage mask wearing.
Nap Mats
Students can bring in a small blanket or towel to cover up with at nap time only. It will need to fit into a grocery sized plastic bag. This will ensure that it will fit into their cubbie and limit exposure. It will stay at school for the week and on Friday will be sent home to wash.
Water Bottles
Students are encouraged to bring in a reusable water bottle. For safety reasons, the water fountains are not in use. We do have refill stations so they can fill or refill as needed.
Snacks
Students eat a snack everyday before nap time. There is a snack calendar located on the back of their binders. Please make sure to check for when it is your child's day to bring in snacks. For safety reasons, we ask that you send snacks in individually wrapped packages and enough for 18 students. If you are uncomfortable with this, let us know and we can remove your child from the snack list and you will need to send a snack with your child daily.
