I can’t believe there is only one full week left with this amazing group of kids! I am so emotional about their academic and social growth and even more emotional because of how much I love them ALL!! Thank you for the kind gestures and gifts from last week! I definitely felt loved 🙂

On Tuesday, we are scheduled to go to Penick park for a fun day.

Please remember to send a sack lunch and two drinks with your child.

We will have organized games and some fun stations set up.

This year, the 1st grade teachers decided to have some water balloon fun. If you would like to volunteer to bring 40 filled water balloons to Penick park (in an ice chest), please let me know. I will not be able to do this task, because of shuttling supplies to and from the park. Hopefully it will work out.

Please have your sweetie wear tennis shoes and appropriate dress code clothes for a day at the park with a chance of water balloons 🙂

If you have any questions, please text me!!

We are very  excited to be going on a field trip tomorrow!! It is very important to be safe a thorough on a trip off campus, so please prepared to follow these rules for a safe and FUN day.

All students will ride the bus to Yesterland Farm, but you will be free to sign them out and bring them home following the itinerary.

Wear tennis shoes.

If you have a White Oak t shirt, please wear it so we know our kids are with our campus even while scattered around Yesterland.

Bring a SACK lunch. No lunchboxes. Even if you are joining us, please send a sack lunch with your child to the school. If your child does not have a sack lunch in hand prior to leaving, they will be provided one through their cafeteria charges. I know you may want to bring them something, and still can, but they need a sack lunch before leaving our building– God forbid anything happen and they don’t have a lunch in time.

Yesterland provides a scheduled itinerary for each class. Your student will remain with their class for each event. They will not be free to join other classes or friends or events outside of where our class is.

Thank you for understanding the rules to make our field trip a success! If you have any questions, please call, text, or let me know!

Don’t forget our Frog and Toad performance on Thursday, March 7th @ 9:00 in the cafeteria.

Dark jeans, leggings or pants and tennis shoes for this day please!  They have cute little costumes provided to put on over what they wear.

You may sign your child out in my classroom after the performance.

Hello!

Several graded papers are coming home today from the course of a few weeks. Please review and go over these with your child praising or to have teaching point. Time to the half hour is sometimes tricky. We have talked and practiced many strategies to get it just right but maybe you can offer something special to help them in your own way.

Wednesday is an early release day. Students will be release at 11:30 and our schedule will be changed around to accommodate the early release. NO LUNCH VISITORS, please. Also, please make arrangements to have kids picked up, or a person waiting at the bus stop, on time. Please note in the planner if there will be an alternate transportation.

Mark your calendars: Next Thursday, March 7, 1st grade will be having a theatrical performance of Frog and Toad. The performance will be on the stage in the cafeteria at 9:00. Hopefully you can make arrangements and be here for this fun and cute play!

We are moving right along, and Spring Break is almost here!!! (9 days, but hey, who is counting?) I am very very impressed with this class as a whole! I know you have seen all the amazing progress they have all worked hard to make!! They are SUPER KIDS!! I am blessed to have each and every one of them! Thank you all for working at home and making them in to such wonderful kids!!

If you need anything, please text or call anytime!

Thank you for making it to the Valentine’s Party and thank you for the sweet and thoughtful gifts! I feel so loved! This class is so special and I’m sure you have seen all the amazing progress they have made!

No school Monday! President’s Day Holiday

Also, I was talking to the kids and they would like me to extend the book order until Tuesday. Our class code is NG2ZM if you would like to order online or please send a CHECK made out to Scholastic.

Thank you or all you do!!

Hopefully everyone is well. A lot of sickness is spreading through our halls. Help your kiddos remember to wash hands, use hand sanitizer, and sneeze into their elbow.

Friendly reminder to please send any valentine’s by the 14th. We will need all valentine’s passed out prior to the party. If you are bringing special goodies for the party those may be passed out as a party favor or party snack.

Book orders are coming home today and are due Friday. I have purchased each student A Bad Case of Stripes as their valentine gift from me, just so you know instead of purchasing it yourself.

Valentine Party is Thursday, at 11:45

We have learned about nouns, and adjectives (describing words) and this week we are beginning verbs (action, I can words).

In math  we are focusing on ways to make 10, reviewing time, and reviewing halves and fourths. They are working very hard.

In writing, we will begin writing friendly letters to peers in our school. We continue to work on penmanship, punctuation, and what makes a good story.

As you know, I have flexible seating in the classroom and your child may  sit wherever they would like unless your child abuses the furniture, is unkind to someone at their table, or can’t control their talking.

In science we will be covering president’s day and American symbols.

Spelling words: so, some, these, would, other, now, my, people, into, has

Spelling Test- Next Tuesday

Thanks for all you do. Please feel free to contact me about ANYTHING.

Please have your child here by 7:45 tomorrow morning so we can head to the stage promptly after. The assembly will start at 8 am so if you are planning to be there, get a great seat~

They have worked so hard!! I am proud of them!

Also below are pictures from our 100th day!! Thank you to all the parents that sent goodies to make it a great, memorable day!
