Good Afternoon!
Just a reminder that we have conferneces next week. During the week of the students will have a spelling/writing homework packet (like the last 2 weeks) and it will be due the Monday after Thanksgiving.
Pleae continue to read every day! I would challenege you to try and read 60 minutes or more a day over break. This can be you reading to your child, with your child, or them reading to themselves. We have been working on story maps in class. We can write down our book title, a sentence about the beginning, middle and end of the story as well as identify the setting and characters. I would encourage you to continue this conversation over break or find a journal where your child can write out a story map after they read.
I'm looking forward to seeing you at all conferences. Today you will get the report card and a paper to fill out after you read it. Please bring this with you to the conference and we can talk about all the wonderful things your first grader is doing at school and discuss areas that seem to be tricky for them right now.
Please email me or call if you can't make it to your conference and we can reschedule or do a phone conference. Take care, stay well and have a great thanksgiving! I am thankful for the wonderful families I get to work with this year!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Mrs. Weathers
