Welcome to First Grade!

Hello and welcome to first grade!!  I am super excited to meet all of my new friends and their families! To prepare for the new school year, your child will need to bring the following to school, if possible:

1 box of plain #2 pencils
1 box of Crayola colored pencils
24 pack of Crayola crayons
2 Elmer's all purpose gluesticks
A 4-pack of Expo markers
1 Expo dry eraser

These supplies will be grouped together for the whole class to use.  I will take them out as needed so that we are able to stretch them throughout the whole year.  Thank you in advance for sending them in! 

In order for students to enjoy a snack each morning, I ask that you send in one class snack at the beginning of each month.  Please make sure you send in enough for 20 students.  Below is a list of suggestions that are easy to serve and that students have enjoyed in the past, but feel free to send in anything your kiddos enjoys eating!

gogurt
animal crackers
string cheese
cheez-its
Fruit Loops
rice krispie treats
goldfish
pretzels
grapes
fruit snacks
chocolate chip granola bars

I update this blog daily so please check back for lots of great information, pictures of what we’re doing in class and upcoming events!  This is my primary means of communication and a great way to take a peek into your child’s day!

Looking forward to meeting you,
Mrs. Smith J
