Happy Sunday

Happy Sunday!

Here are a few highlights from the last couple of weeks.  Mrs. Lyford came in to share a story with us.

Mrs. Christy came in to read One Word Pearl.  This set us off on a hunt for fancy words that we could add to our writing.

We are learning yoga!

We have filled 11 buckets for PBIS celebrations.  We earned a dance party last week.

The first graders created an impromptu puppet show.

My  math class has continued to solidify make 10 facts with games and are working on greater than/less than and equal to.

We have been soaking up this glorious fall weather.  We get outside every chance we can.

In Technology this week, we got to program and work with the school's newest robots.

If you haven't had a chance to sign up for a parent/teacher conference, please return the form in your child's folder.  I can't wait to celebrate your children with you!

This Week

It seems that everyone came back refreshed and ready to learn after a long weekend.  In reading this week we have started our spelling work.  Students are all working with a specific spelling skill each week.  Ask your child about "rainbow write" or "roll a word".

In writing students have all learned to use the tools in their new "office".  This office is designed to increase independence. W, as well as adding fluently within 1e have also worked on planning stories before writing.

Math in first grade has continued to work on games and strategies to add and subtract 10 from any number, as well as add fluently within 10.

Next week we will begin a new reteach session.  Look for a letter on Monday that will let you know what your child's focus is. 

Our classroom focus next week will be on resilience. 

Tomorrow is the opening of our school store.  Students can shop until 9:00.  Items are priced between  $.25 and $2.00.  


Below you will see the first grader's first ukulele lesson.

Wednesday Field Trip

Please remember we have our PE lab on Wednesday morning from 9-1.  Your child needs to be dressed and ready for outside play.  I would recommend sneakers and layers.  Please be sure to pack lunch, snack and a water bottle.
