New Lunch Shelf Notice


Please read this pretend classroom notice for Room 4.
Starting on Monday morning, we have a new spot for our lunch bags.
Do not put your bag on the floor by the coat hooks.
Our class now has a bright blue shelf right next to the door.
When you walk inside, carry your lunch bag with two hands.
Place your bag neatly on the shelf before morning meeting.
Check the front of your bag to make sure your name is on it.
If you need help finding an open spot, ask Mr. Hall.
You can also raise your hand, and a friend will help you.
Thank you for helping keep our room neat and clean!
