Greetings Visitors!
Welcome to my Kindergarten classroom web page! I’m Mrs. Amy Monteiro. The 2011-2012 school year is my 18th year working in early childhood education and 12th year teaching Kindergarten (11th in Westwood). I created this page to quickly and easily communicate back-and-forth with the families of the children in my class and I welcome anyone to post comments and questions to me (or to the other families) through this site. Please check back often to stay up to date with what’s going on in our classroom. You can subscribe through an rss feed reader (feed button is at the bottom left hand corner of this page) or below to receive posts via email. I’m looking forward to another fun year in KM!

Nice to be recognized…
...although it was only by some silly teacher website with no real credence. Now if it was awarded by the MTA or NEA, this button would appear right at the top of the page!

It is cold in our building these days. With the mornings being chilly and the afternoons being variable it is advisable that the kids come dressed in layers. Please be sure they have a sweater or sweatshirt that they will be comfortable wearing in the classroom as the heat is not on consistently yet. Also, please be sure to label everything your child brings to school, lunchboxes and outerwear especially. You’d be surprised how many kids have sweatshirts that are similar and get left behind for days at a time…or lunchboxes that get left behind and end up…well, stinky!

Tomorrow is the last day to send in October Scholastic Book Orders or to order books online so if you want to order books, please be sure to get it in by Friday afternoon.

Any notes for me about your child, an illness, dismissal change (early dismissal, someone else picking up our child,) etc. should come to school in your child’s VIP baggie! Notes should only come to me via the office if there is a change in dismissal that we need to be aware of after school starts for the day. We have a very systematic way of making sure we check and read and direct the notes to the appropriate people who need to see them so please be sure you’re using the VIP baggies in this way. Thanks!
