It's going to be a great year!
My name is Mrs. O’Connor and I am so excited to be your teacher this year! I hope that you had a fabulous summer and I can’t wait to hear all about it. I have been busy getting the room ready for you and the other students. I am really looking forward to seeing you on our first day.
To help us all get to know each other better, I want you to make an All About Me Bag. To do this, just get a paper bag and fill it with 3-5 things that help us learn about you. During the first week of school you will be able to show these things to your classmates as you tell us a little about yourself. You can bring pictures, a book, awards, a favorite stuffed toy, or anything that tells us about you! But remember, everything must fit inside the bag!
There are a few other things that I would like you to bring on the first day.
- a water bottle - it may be warm at school
- a snack for the afternoon
- gym shoes in case we have gym on our first day
- your school supplies (unless they are already at school)
- a big smile and a great attitude
- and don’t forget….
- your All About Me Bag (If you have too much to carry, you can bring it another day)
Enjoy the last few days of summer vacation. I hope that you are as excited about this school year as I am. Together we are going to have so much fun and learn a lot of great things!!
Love,
Mrs. O’Connor
