Newsletter For The Week

Tuesday....

Dear Parents and Guardians,

Please remember that Scholastic book orders are due tomorrow (Tuesday). If you are interested in purchasing Scholastic books, please mark the books on the form sent home last week with a check or cash, or select the books online and pay by credit (www.scholastic.com/parentordering user name: yankiddos password: Kincaid).

Homework is also due tomorrow and we will also begin collecting can foods for United Way Week of Caring if you are interested in donating. :-)

Please remember to keep your child at home if she or he is sick.

Stay tuned for more classroom information in our newsletter that will be going home tomorrow in your child’s homework folder.

Thanks!

The Kissing Hand...

Our first day of Kindergarten started off with a story read by Mr. Hanley, our principal, called, "The Kissing Hand." Students received a cut out paper hand with a hershey kiss in the middle and said good-bye to their parents!

Follow us on Twitter!

Hi Parents!

If you haven't learned already, I am fascinated with technology, and I am about to embark on a new communication tool!

TWITTER!

Bare with me, I am new to Twitter! I thought I'd try something new and see how it works - you all get to be my guinea pigs!

Parents have the option of signing up for my classroom Twitter that will send updates to your cell phone or you can subscribe online to my Twitter posts and view them there (http://www.twitter.com/yankiddos). My Twitter posts are private and are only available to my current classroom parents that subscribe/sign up. I am hoping to use this Twitter to help with classroom reminders (ex. permission slips, field trip the next day, special occasions, etc.). I will do my best to make sure my posts are made before 9pm so you are not awakened by a text message on your cell phone! I apologize ahead of time if an urgent Twitter post goes out past that time.

I hope this will be a great tool for everyone and if so, I will spread the news to my fellow colleagues about what a wonderful communication tool this is for our classroom parents!!

Thanks for testing this experiment out with me!

Sincerely,

Miss Yan
