Volunteers

October 1st, 2016

First grade appreciates and welcomes parent volunteers!  If you are interested in working in the classroom, please click here.

Awbrey Park is the amazing school that it is because of our many hard working parent volunteers!  If you have the time and inclination to get involved in your child’s classroom, you are most welcome! Here are some ways that you can help out:

Monday Folder Helper: Not very glamorous, but it is very helpful if I have one parent that can plan about 1 hour on  Fridays or Mondays to pack up the student Monday folders.  (Currently Filled, Thank you!)

Reading Workstations: This job is working directly with students in room 4 while they are at literacy workstations.  I ask parents to sign up for prearranged times for these slots so that we have a consistent routine.  Volunteers usually begin in early October, and generally commit to a certain day/time each week.  Some parents share a time slot, or we can make other arrangements if necessary. Email me if you are interested, and haven’t yet signed up.

Field Trips and Celebrations: I will request field trip chaperones/celebration helpers as needed. You should try to come to at least one of these fun events if you can!

Other Ideas? Do you have a special talent or interest that you would like to share with the Room 4 students? Let’s talk about a time for you to give a presentation or lead an activity!
