Classroom News for July/August, 2012


WELCOME!  We are looking forward to a wonderful 2012-2013 year!


For those of you who are new to our classroom, here are important things to know: 
  
**You may contact me any time by school email: 
elaine.boyer@elmore.k12.al.us


**Open House is August 16, 2012.  Our PowerPoint presentation will be shown at specific times:  1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, and 5:00. PLEASE be here to see it from the beginning of one time period. Parents will be asked to fill out some paperwork while you are here. This means less to have to take home with you :^) You certainly may go ahead and bring requested "optional" items listed below at the bottom of the school supply list.  I appreciate your help during the year and ask that you remember us when you go shopping!


**School starts on Monday, August 20, 2012.  
*Car riders may unload at 7:30 a.m. and not before.  
*Tardy Bell rings at 8:00 a.m.  Students must be on time!
*Car riders release at 2:45 p.m.  


**School Supply lists are located on the school website:  
www.mycoosada.com and below.  My classroom supply list includes a few changes~~~nothing major, but also some additional requests.


**I will be making Apple Binders for students to use for organizational
purposes this year.  Your child will need a one inch white binder with a clear pocket on the front.   


PLEASE NOTE:  School website supply list requests headphones for computer lab.  These will NOT be used in our class this year!


Also, we do not need Elmer's liquid glue.  You will need glue sticks.
