We had a great first day of school today!
In your child's backpack there is a large envelope of paperwork from the school for you to complete. Please return this to me tomorrow. Your child also has a homework assignment related to our universal theme. In GATE we use a universal theme each year across the curriculum. This year's theme is order for both first and second graders. Today in class we discussed order and looked at some examples of what order is and is not.
Your child's homework tonight is to find or draw a picture of something that shows order. You can help them by looking around your house for examples. For instance, in my kitchen my silverware drawer has order because the forks, spoons, and knives are all separated. My cabinet with pots and pans does not have order because they are just thrown together wherever they fit.
Please help them to do their best with their assignment. Thank you and please remember that tomorrow (Wednesday) is our early dismissal day. School ends at 2:00 every Wednesday.
