First Grade Weekly News 11-4-13
11:03 AM
Hope everyone had a great weekend! Below are a few updates and information for this week. Not too much going on, a pretty normal week :)
Box Tops Contest- our class got 6th place in the contest, so thank you to those who brought those in to help raise money for our school. Our class earned a popcorn party and we will be celebrating in our classroom together. Don't worry, it isn't something that parents need to attend. Plus, it will be right before our lunch time. :)
November newsletter will be sent home this week. Please read through it so you are aware of what we will be learning this month, important dates, and things that are happening in our classroom.
Homework this week is project-based so please read through all of the info- it is attached to the homework sheet. We have been focusing on Community in Reading and Social Studies. I thought this family project would be a great way for the kiddos to expand their knowledge about our own community here at Piper. I did this project last year and the kids really enjoyed it. This homework isn't due back until Monday. Each student will get to share their project with the class, and will also write about it at school. They will get points on their grade card for Research, and also for Listening and Speaking.
On Friday, those kiddos who have not gotten any yellow, orange, or red days for the month of October will get to each lunch with me in the classroom. This is a celebration time for the kids who have show great behavior in the classroom. :) Be looking for a behavior certificate and sticker in your child's folder later this week.
That is all I have for updates right now. If you have any questions please call or email me.
Have a great week!
