Please do not hesitate to email or call if you have questions or concerns. My email is <krecklow@4j.lane.edu> and the school phone number is 541-790-4050. REMIND APP – Text #: 81010 with the message @6g3cd  (Reminders for the class and Parent/Teacher Text Capabilities)

Seesaw App:   This is an app where student’s work can be shared with parents. Seesaw gives your child a safe space to document their learning and learn how to use technology. Each child gets their own journal and will add work to share what they’re doing at school. When your child adds items, you’ll be notified. Your child’s journal is safe and secure.  Download the Seesaw Parent Access App and follow the direction on the handout I will provide you that is specific to your child:)

Newsletter: First grade has a weekly newsletter.  This is an easy and efficient way to keep you informed of our classroom activities and important upcoming dates and events.  I will send paper copies home in students’ Monday envelopes.

Monday Folders: I will use the Monday folder as a communication tool between school and home. Please empty your child’s folder each week. You will find: homework, class and school information, field trip permission slips, completed class work, etc. Make sure your child brings the EMPTY folder back by Friday each week.

Parent/Teacher Meetings: School wide Parent-Teacher Conferences will be in the fall.  More information will be sent out by mid October.
