I know some of you enjoyed Mrs. Shapton's webpage last year, with its schedule and announcements. I will also be keeping a page like that. It is the web address you received in your back to school letter, and it is also linked on my blog profile. Mrs. Kirby's TeacherWeb will supplement the blog, with updated homework, a calendar, and other longterm information that could get lost on this site as each new entry is posted.
Parent volunteers:
I love to keep families active in the classroom! I will be sending home some information on Monday that you can fill out to let me know your availability. On the first day, try to keep your presence to a minimum, not for me but for your child. I want you to feel welcome to visit your child at school, but upper primary grades are very social; the children will benefit from being given the chance to be alone on day one. Social bonds will be formed that day that will last throughout the year, possibly longer. It is important that your child has the opportunity to separate him/herself from you to become part of the group. You may join us in the cafeteria before school and walk your child into the room at 8:00, but try to move on by 8:30 to let the class get to know one another. If you want to come back and visit at lunchtime, we eat at 11:30.
If you ever have any questions or concerns, please call or e-mail me. :)
