Welcome to Team Brackett's website. Here you will find all sorts of information that will help to keep you up to date and support your child's education.This site changes regularly so be sure to check back often. I have left some of the information from last year up so you will know what types of information you can expect to find here.
Team Brackett has gotten off to a great start. As you have probably noticed, we are busting at the seams right now and are hoping the district will send another first grade teacher so we can split the class and have two reasonably sized classes of about 22 students. Until then we are busy, busy, busy learning our new classroom procedures and expectations. For the most part we have been practicing routines and reviewing kindergarten stuff. Last week we began with weekly spelling words and that seems to have gone pretty good. In fact, over 50% of the class (over 20 students) scored 100% on the test Friday. This is very encouraging. Many more only missed one or two words. Keep up the good work. New words will come home every Monday.

This Thursday, Sept. 27th, we will be going on a trip to Blake's Apple Orchard. I sent home a permission slip that needs to be signed and returned as soon as possible. The cost is $8. If you would like to go with us to chaperon, please let me know. As soon as I find out how many students are going, I'll be able to tell you how many parents I can take.
Scholastic Book order forms were sent home along with a direction sheet for ordering online. Orders are due Friday, Sept. 28.
I am looking for several volunteers to help in class from 3:45 - 4:15. This is to help assist with dismissal routines. Please let me know if you are interested.
This is going to be a GREAT year. I thank you for trusting
