Welcome to Miss Claudia’s Class 
Dear Parents, August 2023
My name is Claudia Shriver and I will be your child’s teacher for the 2023-2024 school-year at the Trumbull Early Childhood Education Center. I am very excited about working with your child and look forward to a year filled with learning, laughing, singing, and exploring.
Miss Debbie is my wonderful para-educator, who is an integral part of our classroom. Her warm and caring personality will help foster the development of your child during the coming year. Our classroom is #126 and we are located at the end of the hallway on your right.
I have been using Classroom Dojo, an app where I can communicate with you safely as a whole class or individually, as well as send photos and videos. I will send you the link to connect at the end of August.
**Please send in the following items with your child on a daily basis:
1. backpack, large enough to hold a snack pack, and art work -NO ROLLING BACKPACKS PLEASE
2. a small, healthy snack and a refillable thermos, preferably with water in a lunch box. NO NUTS or PEANUTS PLEASE!! Remember to send in a spoon or fork if needed.
** Please send in the following items to stay in the classroom
1. a complete set of clothes labeled (incl. socks and underwear) in a zip-lock bag (we will send these home as the season changes)
2. pull-ups/ diapers/ wipes, if needed
To helps us stay healthy, please send in a roll of paper towels and disinfecting wipes to use in the classroom.
** Please dress your child in SNEAKERS and play clothes everyday, so that your child may successfully play on our playground (weather permitting) and other gross motor activities. Other types of shoes or fancy clothes hinder your child’s safety. We will put on smocks during painting and water activities but accidents do happen.
Please email me a picture of your child so we can have their cubby and chair ready for the first day of school. I attached a brief survey to help me get to know your child better. Please fill it out and either email it to me or send it in your child’s backpack on the first day of school.
If you have any questions, concerns, or good news you would like to share with me, feel free to e-mail me at cshriver@trumbullps.org.
My teacher web site can be located at http://cshriver1.educatorpages.com.
There, you will find helpful information such as the unit newsletter, our class schedule, our curriculum schedule, lyrics to songs we learn, a classroom supply wish list, recipes we use in class, etc.
Thank you and I look forward to a wonderful year.
Sincerely,
Miss Claudia and Miss Debbie
