IMPORTANT REMINDER ABOUT Class Dojo:

Last week I missed a Dojo message from a parent who was picking up their child early from school.  Please communicate with me via the agenda, by telephone and by email. The class Dojo account is connected to Ms. Kelsea's teacher account and I may not receive all of your messages immediately if they are sent by Dojo.

REMINDERS:

* Last week, I kept the blue duo-tangs while waiting for the ones that were missing.  Please send in your child's blue duo-tang ASAP and on every Monday so that we can add the new songs to the duo-tang.

The blue duo-tang will be sent home every Monday and must be returned the following Monday. You will keep the purple duo-tang at home. Throughout the week, please review the sound of the week and have your child complete the corresponding pages in the purple duo-tang.  Please have your child practice singing the weekly songs/poems and complete the activity at the bottom of the page (if there is one) in the blue duo-tang. Please refer to the introduction letter for a more detailed explanation of this on the 2nd page of both duo-tangs.
