Weekly Update

Happy (Rainy) Friday!

I am looking forward to time at home at the end of this rainy week. It seems to be a good weekend for a movie marathon! :)

Homework Update:
There will be no more written homework for the year. We will continue to review previously learned sight words at school. Please continue to have your child read each night! That is still part of the homework requirement.

First Grade Music Program:
A friendly reminder that our First Grade Music Program will be Wednesday, May 30th at 5:30 p.m. in the gymnasium at school. Student should report to the cafeteria no later than 5:15 p.m. dressed in blue jeans and a white shirt (please no graphics). The students are working very hard in Music class to prepare for the program. They are excited to showcase their efforts!

Substitute:
Our class will have a substitute teacher on Friday, May 25th. I will be in Connecticut for Memorial Day weekend.

Focus Areas for the Coming Week:

  • Reading- We will practice our fluency by showcasing our reading by making mini audiobooks. 
  • Writing- We will continue to learn about poetry. Hopefully, we will get outside to be inspired for our poetry writing. 
  • Math- We will continue with our money unit to learn the value of a penny, nickel, dime, and quarter. 
  • Science- We will continue our study of plants. We will talk about what plants need to grow, identify the parts of a plant, discuss each part's function, and learn about the life cycle of a plant. 
Please let me know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns.

Have a super weekend! Stay dry!
