We’ve had a great week in first grade! Below you will find a
weekly outline of what we will be covering in language arts this week. Please
use this for communication with your child about what they will be doing this
week as well as additional practice.
Several papers went home today. Please look for work that
has been done in class this week and review it with your child. Also note that
our school wide reading program will start on Monday. It is called Road To
Success and requires that first graders read 20 minutes a day, track their
minutes and turn them in every Monday. I will record the minutes from the
previous week and they will be entered in to win prizes!
Please continue to practice lunch numbers at home. It will
make lunch much easier for all involved!
Finally, thank you to those of you who were able to make it
to Back To School Night last night. It’s been great meeting the parents of
these wonderful children! Have a great weekend!
