Ending March

This week is conference week! Be sure to be here on time for your child's conference and ask any and all questions you can think of. We have a fun week planned for the students! They have just finished up sneaker science and we have begun doing some spring activities (With the weather we have it's quiet funny). Over Spring Break, please remember to maintain your child's reading schedule. You might be surprised how much a child can lose when they are not at school for a week. I will be sending home homework over the break, it will be due on April 14th. The reason being so every child will be ready for the vocabulary and spelling words that they will be faced with when they return.

Marching on...

What a hectic month! We have so much to do and time seems to be flying away too quick. This week will be both busy and at the same time allow the students to take a breath. There will be no vocabulary or spelling words this week. We will not be testing due to the concert, Junior Programs, and the practice time we need for the concert as well. I have sent home a fluency practice sheet and a extra math sheet for money practice. We have started coins and some students are having a hard transition and need extra practice at home. A great way to do this is to dump out coins and have them count with you! New pictures to be posted soon!

Marching into March!

The hectic week is finally over! The class did a great job of making up worked missed due to the snow storm and we are officially caught up. This next week will be different than most due to practicing for our big first grade concert. We will have three one hour practice sessions on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday to help prep for the performance. Remember the show starts at 7:00 Wednesday night! Please have your child there by 6:45, so we can get them set-up and ready to go. This week will not include a reading test, but we will be doing spelling. The words this week are all commonly used words in writing and all have been introduced to the students prior to this week. They are: the, of, and, to, you, that, he, for, was, are, as, with, his, they, be, this, from, I, have, like, saw, said, want, because, and favorite. They will need to study hard to get a passing score! In this weeks homework please do not forget to sign up for a conference time!
