Welcome to Our Classroom

Welcome to our classroom and our classroom blog. We post pictures and information here about our classroom. We have lots of fun and learn many things. We try to make learning fun by doing hands-on activities. We also use lots of movement and music in our classroom.

This year we will have four paraeducators helping in our morning class (Mrs. Craig, Mrs. Lampson, Mrs. Bahr, and Mrs. High). They are all highly qualified for their positions. They have all worked in the district for many years and the children love them. Mrs. High and Mrs. Bahr will help me with the afternoon children.

Tips:
Please try not to send your child to school in flip flops. They like to flip children over and flop them on their faces, especially when getting on or off the bus and on our ramps. The pea gravel gets in them and are uncomfortable to the children. Fip flops are also dangerous to run in.

Dress your children for the weather. We go outside unless the weather is too hot, cold, or wet.

We do lots of messy play. What a fun way to learn! Even though we put paint shirts on the children, they sometimes get paint on their clothes. Accidents sometimes happen.

Thanks so much for sending your child to our classroom. We look forward to partnering with you as your child begins his or her school career. Please feel free to contact me at any time. You can either call the school or e-mail me at montgomeryb@westelk.us. I love to hear from parents.
