Thank you to all of the parents who turned in the “Student Information sheet”. I enjoyed learning more about your child and will work very hard to ensure their first grade experience is a wonderful one!
This week in Social Studies, we worked on coming up with our class rules. And they are as followed: 1. Use your best behavior, 2. Keep hands and feet to yourself., 3. Use appropriate voice level., 4. Listen to the teacher the first time, 5.Use your manners., 6. Come every day ready to do your best., and 7. Be respectful when others are working. Together as a class we also came up with rewards and consequences and talked about how we can be good classroom citizens. That is someone who is a role model to others in our classroom and school.
In math, we have started our daily work with the money flip chart, the secret code cards, number flashes with our fingers, the number path, and number splash. Have your child tell you what we do with each of these items daily.
In reading, we have been discussing how important it is to read as much as possible, because “the more we read, the better we read!” This can be books, signs, video games, things on television, the comics, or anything else they can find.
In writing, we have been focusing on using correct spaces in our story and adding more to our story because “When we are done, we have just begun.” It’s important to go back and add more to our picture, more to our writing, and then starting another piece.
Important information:
- I would first like to thank all of the parents for bringing in so many wonderful supplies for the beginning of the year.
- We went to the library last week and had a chance to check out 2 library books each. I will allow students to go the library and check out new books in the morning before the bell rings and any free time throughout the day.
- Bus riders are required by Wake County to wear their bus tags for the first 20 days of school. Please make sure your child returns their bus tag each day! We want to make sure they are getting off at the appropriate stop.
- Homework will always be due on Friday. I will have students pull out their homework on Friday mornings, so it should stay in the folder till Friday. I will not pull it out before then.
-Please keep the “Home-School Connection” in the homework folder. I will collect those on Monday and keep for my records. Thanks for your understanding.
