First grade weekly news 10-28-13



Hope everyone had a great weekend.  Thank you to everyone for attending conferences…I really enjoyed talking with each of you about your kiddo J. 

Homework for this week is a little different…but fun!  I made it simple because I know this is a busy week for everyone, but also included a fun activity for the kids!  Please make sure you read the instructions.  The homework is due Friday.

The Halloween Parade starts at 2:10 (just found that out today) in the gym, and the party will follow after around 2:30.  All parents are welcome to come and enjoy the party with us :).  If you plan on taking your child home with you on Thursday after the party, I will have a sign-out sheet that I will need you to sign along with letting the office know.

Graded work comes home at least 3 times a week with your child so PLEASE make sure you are taking a peek at your child’s work.  If I graded it, it will have some type of ink markings.  If it doesn’t then it means that it is something we did together in class and the kids put a star or smiley face on it themselves for finishing.  Looking at their work, will give you a good idea of how they are doing. 

Conferences- thank you for coming I really appreciate it!  I am so lucky to have the group of parents and kids that I have this year!

P.S. our class collected a lot of Box Tops and we placed 6th out of the whole school so we won the popcorn party!  We will be celebrating during the day on November 4th.  Isaac Cook from our class brought in the most so he will be getting the individual ice cream treat I promised :).  Thanks to everyone for sending those in!  You helped our school raise money!

That is all I have for now.  If you have any questions or concerns please let me know.  Have a great week!

Happy Monday!

Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend…what about those Chiefs???!!!  J

Updates for this week are below

·         Parent/Teacher conferences are in two weeks.  I sent home a reminder last week with your date and time on it and you had to return it saying if that time still worked or not.  Most have turned it back in, if you haven’t please do.  It was a green note and should have been in the front pocket of your child’s folder.

·         Box Tops contest is over, and they will be counting sometime this week so maybe we will know who wins by next week…?

·         No school this Friday the 18th!

·         Homework this week is a little different.  For most of the week the kids are working on their animal research map.  I sent that home along with the weekly homework sheet so please don’t lose it.  The kids need to turn in their research map on Thursday. 

·         October book orders are in, I just need to open them up, get them organized and hand them out. 

If I forgot any information I will email again later on in the week.  Enjoy the fall weather J

Hope everyone had a great weekend…what about those CHIEFS?!!!  J



Items for this week are below:



  • Box Tops contest ends this Friday!  Please get them in ASAP because I will be turning them in for PTA to count!  Remember our class has  a chance to win a pizza or popcorn party if we bring in them most and the kiddo in our class that brings in the most will get a special ice cream treat from meJ
  • Book Orders were due today.  I will be putting in the order tomorrow so hopefully it will arrive Friday. 
  • Parent/Teacher Conference reminders will be sent home Tuesday (it is a green sheet).  It will contain the time and day that you will be meeting with me. 
  • Purple Take Home Folders- I have looked at all of the kids colored/behavior days for the months of August and September.  If they never had a yellow, orange, or red day then they get to eat lunch with me in the classroom this Thursday!  Just wanted to let parents know because I know some parents plan on coming up for lunch, and I wanted to let you know that they will be eating with me instead…I know I am hogging them! 



That is all I have…if I think of anything else I will send it out!  IF you have any questions or concerns please call or email!  Have a great week!
