Week of January 25, 2016

       This will be a fun and busy week as we prepare for 100 Days of School and our First Grade Play.

Below are some skills we will be learning and reviewing this week:

• The children will work on learning their spelling bee words.  They will have a practice spelling bee in our class on Thursday.  The children will need to say the word, spell the word, and then say the word again.
• The children will continue to work on addition, subtraction, word problems, tallies, and counting and writing by 2's, 5's, and 10's.
• The children will be doing fun activities as they prepare for 100 Days of School.
• The children will write several narratives using good letter formation, spacing, and using their editing skills.
• The children will read and discuss several stories about 100 Days of School

First Grade Reminders:

Hello 1st and 2nd grade parents,

Please remember that our Winter Musical will be next Thursday, Jan. 28, at 6:30 pm on the stage in the HS gym.

If your child has a speaking part, it is HIGHLY important that you help your child to memorize their lines for the show so that they will be confident. Everyone needs to work together as a team for a wonderful program. I know that it will be great! Stay safe and warm, and I will see you next Thursday night.
