1st grade weekly news 2-17-15
Hi everyone! Hope you enjoyed the long weekend! Below are some updates for this week...
Our Time For Kids fundraiser has started. The packet came home tonight in your child's purple folder along with an informational note on how to fill out the packet. The kids were given information about it at lunch. If they bring it back filled out before the end of the week then they get a prize!
Parent/Teacher conferences went great! Thank you so much for meeting with me about your child, I enjoyed talking to each and every one of you!
I informed some of you about the phonics sheet included in the weekly homework- it contains our weekly spelling words so if your child completes that sheet and studies the words on it, they will do well on the test.
There have been some issues with behavior in the classroom. Talking has been our biggest issue, but keeping our hands to ourselves and following directions has also been disruptive. The kids and I have talked about it a lot at school so if you could at home as well that would be fabulous!
That is all I have for this short week! Email or call if you have any questions or concerns! :)

1st grade weekly news 2-3-14
Well, the groundhog saw his shadow...I'm not impressed! Bring on spring! I have some important information below of things going on in our classroom so take a look.
February newsletter is uploaded to our website. And for those parents who still wanted a paper copy, it came home yesterday. Please read through it. It is short and sweet but also keeps you updated for things happening this month.
Valentines Party will be next week on Thursday, Feb. 12th. Any parents are welcome to join. The party will start at 10:15 and end at 11:00. Since it is a half day of school dismissal will be at 11:30. If you are taking your child home with you that day there will be a sign out sheet in my room. Room parents may come in as early at 9:50 to start setting up.
*I have been asked about a class list for valentines...there is a class list on the website under "Class Info." I was hoping to save paper, but I will send one home later this week as well.
Parent/teacher conferences are Wed. Feb. 11th 4-8 p.m. and Thurs. Feb. 12th 1-8 p.m. I sent home reminders of our day and time yesterday. I am looking forward to talking with you about your child.
Reading at home and doing the weekly homework is very important. In order to move up in reading levels your child should be reading as much as they can at home. The books in kiwi bags are very important. We want all students to be reading at a level G by the end of this 3rd quarter.
I try to make the weekly homework easy and painless. The phonics sheet that I have started sending home has our 10 spelling words on it. So it is great practice before the test Friday.
That is all! If you have any questions or concerns please call or email me. Have a great week.
