I hope to see you all at the Meet the Teacher night tomorrow from 5:30-7:30. Classroom visits will occur from 5:30-6:30 tomorrow. I look forward to meeting you.

Reminders:
Friday is Pizza Day.
Also, September Scholastic Book Orders are due on Friday too!

Meet the Teacher Night is September 29th 5:30-7:30pm.

Welcome to Ms. Crowley’s Grade 1/2 class. I am so happy you are here! I am looking forward to all the learning we will have this year. 

Some Reminders: 

*Please bring $5 dollars in to cover the agenda costs. Thank you to those who have done that already. 

As mentioned, we can earn coins for various things doing the school day (e.g. following our rules, doing our best work, going that extra mile, and other things). Then at the end of the month, the students can cash in their coins for prizes. Here are some additional ways to earn extra coins and improve our skills. 

*Please initial your child's agenda everyday and support him/her in bringing it back to school. Your child will earn a coin for that. This will help foster responsibility for your child. 

*Home Book Bags will go home at the end of every week. Please read these books with your child and get your child to read to you. You will need to initial the papers provided and return them by the following end of the week. If you do, your child will earn another coin. 

*Math Grid Duo-Tangs will be going home this week. Your child should complete a minimum of 2 grids for homework. If completed, he/she will earn a coin. Please return this by the end of the next week. Grade 1s will get 2 minutes to complete what number comes next and Grade 2s will get 5 minutes to complete the addition grid. 

*Shared Reading Duo-Tangs will be going home at the end of each week or every other week depending on the time we have had for working on the shared reading. Read the poem with your child and initial the page. Return it by the end of the week. This can also allow your child to earn another coin. 

 *Spelling homework will be going home this week. There will be a little activity to do everyday in the week. Bring completed homework at the end of the week to earn a coin.

Welcome Back Bravehearts!

I hope you had a lovely summer. I am very excited to your teacher this year. My name is Ms. Crowley and I have been a teacher at Banbury Heights School since 2010. I enjoy scrapbooking, taking Zumba classes, going to the gym, reading, writing, and acting. Some of the plays I have been in include Alice in Wonderland (Queen of Hearts), Beauty and the Beast (Beauty), and Dreams Come True (Snow White).  I am looking forward to getting to know all of you!
We will be learning so many wonderful things in Grade 1/2 this year! I am excited and I hope you are too!
On this blog, I will post our newsletters and other important dates here. Let's have a great year.
Welcome September!
