Winter Attire

As the colder weather continues, please make sure that your child has the appropriate winter attire to play outside at recess.  Students are required to go outside for recess unless a parent can provide a doctor's note.  Students should have snow pants, boots, a warm coat, a hat, and insulated gloves.  In addition, please make sure to send shoes for your child.  Our boots are kept outside of our classroom to keep our tile floor from becoming slippery.  This can only happen if students have shoes to wear so that they can change out of their boots.  If you are unable to provide boots for your child, please email me.  I will provide a resource for you to use to get boots for your child. 

Changing into and out of winter gear can be a challenge for first graders.  Practicing at home can help with this.  We practice in the classroom every day, but some students may require more practice at home.  Have your child practice putting on his or her snow gear.  This will help them to become more skilled and take less time during our school day changing in and out of snow gear.  Thank you for your support with this skill.

This Wednesday is a full day of school.  Please remember to send your child with athletic shoes on Monday and Thursday for Kinetics.  Library books should be returned on Wednesday and are due back Thursday.
