First Grade Families,
Hope the wind will settle for the rest of our week. We have fun activities planned by our 8th graders this week (Wed: 2:15, Thurs. 9:20). This Friday is minimum day with a 1:45 activity with families.
Don’t forget to fill those paper bags with canned foods. There will be red bins in our pick and drop off line. 🙂
Thank you for keeping your child’s backpack organized and ready for our day. It does help me when they have all their supplies. I will be taking a peek into their binders to recycle any work (new trimester so new beginnings).
Homework
- Reading Log: Read 20 min. a day (at least 5 times a week)
- Practice new word sort. Go over word patterns with your child. (Test will be on Monday)
- Looks like we are done with fluency. If your child still has some fluency to complete, please do so this week. You can send in the packet of fluency so I can add a sticker. If you would prefer no sticker, please recycle the packet. I have copies of completed work on Seesaw. 🙂
- Math IXL: A.20, H.1, and R.6
Sneak Peek To Our Academic Week
MATH: We will work on number lines (skip counting), even and odds. We will work on time to the hour and half hour.
READING: We began our new unit this week. It is all about learning good reading habits (sneak peek, check your sneak peek, and do something after you read).
WRITING: We begin our information writing. I gave an assessment yesterday and begin the unit on Tuesday. We will be writing “How to …” books. 🙂
SPELLING/WORD SORT: Look in their planner for the spelling words. The kids are improving on writing their words in their planners.
RELIGION: We continue our second week of Advent.
REMINDERS:
Please make sure you look at our school website for any free dress days or other activities.
*Friday, December 11th: 11:45 a.m. dismissal and Families in the afternoon.
