HAPPY WEEKEND!

DAILY REMINDERS:
  • Monday, November 12--VETERAN'S DAY ASSEMBLY @ 9:30--Please remind your first grader to wear red, white, and blue (or one or two of the colors).
  • Support a Family begins next week--collecting food items.
  • Wednesday, November 14--EARLY DISMISSAL & Show and Tell.  If your child is going home a different way than you informed us about at the beginning of the year, please send a note to school with your child by Wednesday. 
  • Friday, November 16--Jingles for Jammies:  Your child may wear their p.j.s to school and a coin donation for Support a Family would be greatly appreciated.
A DAY IN THE LIFE OF YOUR FIRST GRADER:
  • Word Work:  We took Week 11 Spelling Test today.  I actually had time to grade them before your student left today, so you should find their graded test in their green folder.  MANY first graders missed the two words in the -ack family, so we will spend more time practicing that word family next week.
  • Library:  Mrs. Justus, our librarian, did a lesson with our class today.  We also checked out library books.
  • Social Studies:  We took our test over Unit 2 (suburbs, neighborhoods, countries, maps, map keys, etc...).  I will send the graded test home next week.
  • Officer Ed came to our class today for his last DARE lesson.  Your first grader will participate in DARE again when they are in 5th grade.  I think the first grade classes thoroughly enjoyed the lessons with Officer Ed, and they learned a lot!
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!
