Tomorrow!

Mr. Cateon sent out an email with tomorrow's lunch choices. I am including that below. If your child is getting lunch from school, please go over the choices with him/her so he/she knows what lunch choice to pick on the morning. Having students independently select their lunch choices is part of our morning routine each morning so it is a good practice to have with your child each morning before leaving for school. 

Our lunch tomorrow is : 
Choice 1: Baked Chicken Nuggets with Whole Wheat Dinner Roll
Choice 2: Turkey and American Cheese Sandwich
Choice 3: Garden Salad with Hard Boiled Egg and Whole Wheat Dinner Roll
Apple Juice, Carrot Sticks, Green Beans

 

Also for tomorrow all students will meet on the blacktop, not just the walkers.  Students will be able to find me because I will be holding a sign with my name and wearing a bright yellow dress. :) Teachers will bring the bus lines to the back area. Once I have checked off your child's name, he/she will sit in my line so teachers know that student is accounted for. Eventually we will stand for the Pledge and Willett Way. For those who are new to Willett, the Willett Way is something we say daily. It is:  "I will be: safe and secure, respectful and responsible, positive and productive, and kind and courteous." 

 

I meant to mention in my Welcome Letter that during the fall semester (Sept-Dec) I will be hosting a student teacher from PC, Jenna DiTullio. Mr. Cateon and I interviewed her in June and feel she will be a great fit in our classroom. She will be with us Mon-Fri.  A letter will be going home that introduces her. 

 

Have a great night and happy night before the first day of school!

Welcome New Students

Hello!  If you have stumbled here because you will be one of my new firsties this upcoming school year, WELCOME!  I cannot wait to meet you on September 1st!  I hope you are enjoying your summer. I can't believe it is already almost over, but I am ready for the school year to begin!

I am so glad you have found my classroom website.  If you scroll down, you will see that I update this website frequently.  I put all classroom news, reminders, etc. on my website.  I always do a Sunday update (okay, sometimes it is a Monday update), but I also update throughout the week. I highly recommend bookmarking my website (not just because I think it is awesome, but because I promise it will be very useful!).   

The sidebars contain a lot of important information that will continue to be updated throughout the summer.  I've updated the Calendar and About the Teacher pages.  You can always reach me through "Contact" and you will find important documents and websites uses last year as well.

If you scroll down you will see my posts from the previous school year. You will also see all the fun things we do in first grade!! :)  Feel free to check it out... and leave me comments! I love getting comments!! :)

I also love using technology in the classroom and outside of the classroom.  Thus, in addition to this website, I also use a text messaging system called, "Remind."  Remind is  a free, safe, and simple messaging tool that helps teachers share important updates and reminders with students & parents. Subscribe by text, email or using the Remind app. All personal information is kept private. Teachers will never see your phone number, nor will you see theirs.   I have a special code that you enter so that you can receive messages from me and if needed you can text me.  I will never see your cellphone number and you will never see mine. It keeps it completely private.  

I have already set up the Remind unique code for the upcoming school year.  If you are a parent of one of my students, I strongly suggest you subscribe to my updates through Remind either with text messaging or emails. I am including the directions below as well as attaching a document that I will send home the first week of school as well.

To Join Mrs. Bower's Remind:
To receive messages via text, text @mrsbower15 to 81010. You can opt-out of messages at anytime by replying, 'unsubscribe @mrsbower15'


Trouble using 81010? Try texting @mrsbower15 to (781) 257-2302 instead. (That is not my cellphone number.)



Or to receive messages via email, send an email to mrsbower15@mail.remind.com. To unsubscribe, reply with 'unsubscribe' in the subject line. 



I hope you continue to enjoy the rest of your summer.  I really cannot wait to meet you on Tuesday, September 1st!  I have been working on our classroom over the summer and it is ready for you! :)

Love,
Mrs. Bower
