Snacks
Students are more successful learners when they are able to focus on the task at hand. A mid-morning snack is a great way to keep our minds and bodies energized! Please send your child to school with a water bottle (NO juice or soda, please) and a healthy snack. Remember, Butterfield is a nut-free school. Snacks need to be free of any nut products to ensure the safety of all Butterfield students. Here are some healthy, yummy ideas:
*Cereal bars
*whole-grain crackers
*fruit
*cheese
*dry cereal, such as Cheerios
*pretzels
Birthdays
I love celebrating birthdays! Feel free to send in birthday treats (store-bought and nut-free) on your child's special day. Students who have a summer birthday can celebrate their 1/2 birthday (Example: if your child's birthday is July 8, we would celebrate his 1/2 birthday on January 8.)
Volunteers
I love, love, LOVE having parents volunteer in the classroom! If you are able and willing, please let me know a specific day of the week or time that you are free to come in. I do ask that thse dates be scheduled with me in advance so I can prepare ahead of time to best utilize your time in our classroom.
