There is not much news this week other than SNOW SNOW and more SNOW! I will not be sending home Friday Folders this week since it has been such a short week.
Our Star of the Week this week was Student #3. We learned that Student #3 has an older sister. He has 1 dog who name is Lacey. His favorite color is black. His favorite school subject is PE. When he is not in school he likes to play his DS game. His favorite animals are tiger. His favorite TV show is Phineas and Ferb . His favorite foods are Hot Dogs and Macaroni and Cheese. He has a bobble head collection and a rock collection at home. Student #3 also likes to play soccer and T-ball.
Our Star of the Week next week is Student #6. We will look forward to learning more about Student #6.
Day 100 was a success even though we had to spread it out over two days due to the weather. We counted and grouped our objects that were brought from home. We had a very wide collection of things: cranberries, rice, cereal, Lincoln Logs, pennies, beads, M&M’s, Legos, toothpicks, animal crackers, pop tops, trading cards, Rice Krispies, and craft sticks. We read several 100 Day books. We broke up into small groups to see how many words we could spell. We reached 100 words quite easily. We also made a list of 100 books we have read since the beginning of first grade. We reached this quite easily as well and could have kept going. We also got our exercise by doing 100 jumping jacks and also 100 toe touches. We did some writing about what we would buy if we had $100 and also drew what we would look like when we were 100 years old. The kids had a great time with all of the activities.
There is a class list attached to the email this week for Valentine’s Day. The first graders will be having their Valentine’s Party on Monday, February 14th.
If you ever have any concerns or questions, please let me know. You can call me at school or shoot me an email and I will respond as quickly as possible. I would rather answer questions and concerns when they are small rather than let them snowball into a huge problem.
When your child brings their math homework home, there is always a note to the parents about what we did in math class that day. Math homework is a great time to sit down with your child, listen to what they did in math, and complete the paper together. The answers are always on the first Home Link for the chapter. Thank you.
