Wow! The first week in first grade was a whirlwind! We learned lots about school rules and classroom procedures last week. We will continue working with rules and procedures so that the classroom will run seamlessly. This week you also will begin seeing more work coming home. Students will need to take their reading books home each day (M-Th.) for fluency practice. Also, please be sure to check your child's FALCON notebook daily for fluency work in math, cut-out projects, notes from the teacher, etc. :)
Students, don't forget your PE shoes on Tuesday! Parents, we are on a 4 day rotation (art, library, music, PE). We started last Monday in library. Tuesday was music, Wednesday was PE, Thursday was art, and Friday was library. I believe I denoted PE days on our snack calendar.
Parents, don't forget to check the snack calendar and send snacks on the appropriate days. When we accumulate extras, I will account for that in the snack schedule. You are welcome to send snacks in advance. It would be helpful if you label them with your child's name. I will put them up until it is your child's snack day.
