Hello! Welcome back after our snow days! Since we missed 2 days of learning, we've "hit the ground running" and we're busy catching up this week.
DAILY REMINDERS:
***PRISM Night is this Wednesday, February 27 from 3:30-5:30 in the Crestwood gym.
***The EFG card campaign (fundraiser) begins tomorrow. Your first grader has a large envelope in their folder today explaining how this fundraiser works. The last day to participate is next Monday, March 4th.
***Week 23 spelling test is this Friday, March.
***Library this Friday
***We will celebrate Dr. Seuss' birthday this Friday.
***February journal calendar assignment is due this Friday, March 1st.
A DAY IN THE LIFE OF YOUR FIRST GRADER:
***Shared reading-We are reading the story There's An Alligator Under My Bed by Mercer Mayer and we continue to practice putting words from the text into ABC order.
***Word Work-Week 23 words are: his, could, going open, live. We're also reviewing words with the CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) spelling pattern (his, top, cat...).
***Writing-Our idea books are beginning to fill with lists so we have more ideas for our writing pieces. We are also going to write a poem about Dr. Seuss and make a special book for Mr. Taylor since next Wednesday is Principal's Day.
***Math-Skip counting, even and odd numbers, finding patterns on the hundred chart and in a table is our main focus in math this week.
***Social Studies-We continue work on unit 5--Presidents, American symbols, heroes etc...
February is Dental Health Month and we had a fun assembly last week. The Tooth Wizard and his pal Panda visited us and taught us good dental hygiene. Enjoy a few pictures taken at that assembly. Our friend, Sanjiv, was one of the students chosen to help Tooth Wizard and Panda teach us about plaque.
