Hello there! I am Mrs. Carter and I love to teach! This is where I will share what is going on in our classroom. I am looking forward to sharing with you a little bit of what goes on in our world everyday. Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns!
Read!
Research shows that one of the most important factors in helping children develop fluency is time spent reading with an adult or loved one. Keeping this in mind, please read to and with your child every day!
Come have lunch!
You are welcome to come and join your child for lunch in the cafeteria. Lunch is 10:50-11:20 am each day. You will have a very special spot where you can dine with your child away from any other distractions. This is a wonderful way to reward your child for some special effort, or to bond with them in a very special way! I do ask that you make sure and stop in at the front office to sign in and out. You will receive a special pass from the front office to be admitted into the cafeteria. From there, you will be directed to the appropriate area. At the end of lunch, you will need to quickly say your "goodbyes" so your child may be off to finish the rest of their day. Breakfast ~ $1.50 Lunch ~ $2.25 Adult ~ $3.00
“*Dr. Kenneth Zike has said that at least 50% of the children with learning problems referred to the neurological clinic at his hospital had had no traumas, no birth injuries, and no other physical deviations. Their trouble seemed to come from pressure - pressure to do a task that they did not have the maturity to do.”
~Borrowed from Robert Jackson on the world wide web.
What a wonderful morning in First Grade! The boys and girls did a wonderful job. Regretfully, nerves took over some of the children and their incredible voice and character they brought to their reading was lost. ...and they still did an AMAZING JOB!!!
I want to personally thank you for taking the time to come into school and support your children. You made this day incredibly special to them!
I am sorry I did not get more pictures. I definitely wanted to make sure I took video of each presentation.

It is such a pleasure to teach your children!
PS: Please send me your photos. I had just this one. If your video is better than mine...pass it along! :o)

Thanks for inspiring others to do Readers Theater! Wish I could have seen this performance, too.
