I hope this message finds you well! As we have passed our 100 day mark, we would greatly appreciate any donations of classroom supplies, if possible. Items such as tissues, paper towels, baby wipes, and Lysol would be most helpful in keeping our classroom clean and running smoothly.
I would like to kindly remind you that there are no toys allowed in the classroom. This policy is in place to help maintain a focused and productive learning environment for all students. I appreciate your understanding and support in reinforcing this rule with your child.
Finally, as we get ready to enter a new month, it would be greatly appreciated if you could continue to reinforce the importance of being respectful and following classroom rules, such as staying in our seats and not calling out. Demonstrating respect and following the rules are two values that are still of utmost importance in the classroom, especially as we grow closer to being in 3rd Grade! Your partnership in this effort will help ensure that every student understands the importance of maintaining a respectful and orderly environment, both in and out of the classroom. Together, we can support our students in their growth and success.
Thank you so much for your support and generosity! :)
-Ms. Brusgard
