Parents at lunch

It's been a great first week!  I have to admit, it was hard to get up this morning.  The excitement of the first day has worn off, and now my body is starting to protest this new early schedule! 


In class, we have been learning our new procedures and expectations.  Part of our procedures are our new lunch procedures.  Since we have been going out to recess first and getting out all our wiggles, we have been learning to eat calmly and chat with our team mates, and also learning what we do when we finish lunch.

With our new lunch routine, comes a plea from me for Parents at Lunch.  The responsibilities of Parent at Lunch are to be in the room with the kids while they eat and to model good manners and nice conversation during mealtime and to be outside with the kids during the first 15 minutes of lunch to monitor recess.  Being a parent at lunch will give you an opportunity to share in your child's day, eat lunch with them, and it will also help give me a little break during the day!  I am in need of a Parent at Lunch Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11:10-12:00.  If you are able to help, and would like to come eat lunch with your child, please e-mail me at amandag (at) blcbls (dot) org
