Hi, Everyone. Your first grader may have told you that we got our new Reading Streets books on Friday. We are in unit one now, and that means we will have spelling every week. On Monday I will give a pretest of the words (10) and send them home for your child to study. If he/she gets most of the words correct on Monday, I will substitute with sight words from our word wall. If even those are not challenging enough, we can go to the amazing words which are - amazing!
Pumpkin math: If you can send in a small pumpkin with your child this week, it will really help with our pumpkin math project. Thank you!
Progress reports go home on Thursday. I think you will be pleased - the class as a whole is doing very well.
Book Fair: We will be going to the book fair this week, but I am not sure what day. You can send in money with your child and I will save it for them, or you can wait until they go to the fair and choose a book or two they would like. I try to discourage spending money on the "stuff" that is available, and encourage the kids to buy books. If you have any questions about the fair, let me know.
Have a great week!
