Tuesday, September 17 - Meet and Greet and EYE-TA

• Our Meet, Greet and Learn evening is set for September 19, 2019 – 5 pm to 7 pm in your child’s classroom.  This evening will be a drop-in format for you to meet your child’s teacher, set learning goals, learn classroom routines, and see first-hand the learning your child has been engaged in during these first few weeks.
• Kindergarten will have information about the Early Years Evaluation - Teacher Assessment (EYE-TA) that I am administering. A brochure will be available that explains what the EYE-TA is all about. At our next interview in November, parents will receive a copy of their child's EYE-TA.  This assessment is a formative assessment tool, that looks at what your child needs to know by the end of Kindergarten. So please do not worry about this assessment, and remember that if something comes up we will work on it together.
• The annual Scholastic Book Fair takes place on Thursday, September 19 starting at 3:30 pm until 7 pm and again on Friday, September 20 from 8 am until 12 pm in the Learning Commons. Purchases can be made with cash, credit cards, or debit cards.
• Save the Date:  Tuesday, September 24, 2019 – our first Treat Day of the school year will be hosted by students in Room 1.  Treats are 25 cents each.  Funds raised will support a learning opportunity for, and decided by, the students in Room 1.  Watch for future Treat Day dates hosted by your child’s homeroom.
