Box
Top & Campbell's Label Collection
Contest
We are always collecting Box Top's Labels for Education (click
here
for more information) and Campbell's UPC's. They turn into
cash for our schools! Please
encourage grandparents, other family members, and neighbors to
collect them for us, too! Not only do we earn 10 cents
per label, but we earn a special "class celebration if we collect
the most!
Simply tear it off the package and send them in your child's
folder. We'll even take care of trimming them down so
you don't have to! If you drop them off in the office, please
make sure the bag is labeled
"BOLINE"!
How can
I support my child in math?
As adults we often
think that teaching our children how to recite their addition or
subtraction facts is the best way to help them be successful in
math. Unfortunately, this is not the
only thing we can do for young learners as these
concepts are still too abstract until a strong number sense is
built. So how can
you support your child in math? A
wonderful way is merely by playing board games.
Rolling dice, recognizing the number of dots, moving a playing
piece to coincide with the roll and taking turns are all wonderful
activities you can do at home to help build number
sense!
Please let us
know if your child will have alternate afternoon transportation
plans. You may send a note in your child's folder, call the
office (802-7370), or email me before noon. It is
especially helpful if you can let us know of the change as
soon as possible. Getting the message to your child
is often a time consuming process! (Our class has specialists
at the end of the day/3 days per week!) Thanks for
understanding.
