Communication

Blog-Folder-Email

Mr. Hubble will send a weekly blog post each Sunday with a link to my blog.  Please be sure to check this. I will include news of upcoming events and details about what we're learning in the classroom. The blog will be your primary news-getting source.  Each Friday your child will bring home a folder containing any work samples, notes, or additional communication from the school. (This will begin on  Please return this folder each Monday. Email is the best way to reach me, but you are also welcome to send a note or call the school.  My email address is ereimers@stjoebears.com 


Water and Snacks

Please send two healthy snacks for your child each day as well as a water bottle. Please do not send candy or soda.  I do have candy on occasion for the children. If your child has an allergy or sensitivity please be sure to communicate that to the office and to me directly.  We do have a peanut allergy so please DO NOT pack snacks with peanut butter.  

Lunch

Lunch will be eaten in the classroom. Please pack food that is easy for your child to open independently. Please do not send in juice or pop. Our classroom has carpet and spills will be challenging to clean. 

School Supplies

  • earbuds or headphones

  • water bottle

  • Tennis shoes

  • Face Masks 

I will provide pencil boxes. 

Classroom Donations 

  • Kleenex

  • Gallon & Quart Size Ziploc Bags

  • Large Glue Sticks

  • Colored Pencils

  • Markers

  • Hand Sanitizer

  • Disinfectant Wipes 

  • Black Dry Erase Markers 

  • Paper Towels 


I have also created an Amazon wish list. Please feel free to check out my link if you are interested in helping out. https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/16K7NRE1H4RAK?ref_=wl_share 


Volunteers

At this time, unfortunately no volunteers are permitted in classrooms.  I am in need of a parent to make copies on a regular, weekly basis.  You will not be able to leave the office.  

Mystery Readers

Please consider being a mystery reader for the class! The kids love this!  To do so, you'll need to record yourself reading a children's book and email it to me along with three clues about yourself.  I will read the clues to the children and they try to figure out whose parent, sibling, grandparent, etc. we'll see reading. 

Masks

Yes, we will be wearing masks all day.  There will be opportunities for brief, safe breaks. I have every confidence the children will adapt to this quickly. The school will be providing two masks. It would be wise to keep a spare mask in your kids backpack.   You are welcome to send additional masks if you choose. I will encourage kids to take home their mask everyday so they can be cleaned. 

Sickness

The district has strict protocols in place that I will be enforcing in the classroom.  Please monitor your child and be diligent about keeping him/her home when warranted by symptoms. 

Recess

We will have recess twice each day as long as it's not raining, storming, or below 10 degrees. We will also take walks, and head outside to read as much as possible.
