We are looking forward to our duck hatch this week!
Last week we had a visit from Mrs. Makowiecki and Mrs. Judd. Mrs. Makowiecki shared her extensive egg collection and knowledge with us. Mrs. Judd gave our eggs a final candling. We have 5 eggs that appear to be healthy and should hatch soon! This week will be an assessment week. We will be taking a Benchmark Reading Assessment, as well as being assessed on our sight word reading fluency. Our spelling words will be a review of the "r" controlled vowel pattern. This is a tricky pattern, but the more exposure to this pattern, the more accurate your child will be as a reader and as a speller. This week we will be continuing to learn to read and write time to the hour and half hour. This is a busy time in first grade. We are working on assessing what we have learned as well as learning new concepts. Early bed times and maintaining a school routine are encouraged. Permission slips for our upcoming theater trip went home on Thursday. Please sign and return. Our class supplies of sanitizing wipes, additional snacks and juice for the occasionally forgotten one, and soft tissues are dwindling. If you are able to donate one of the following to the class, we would be appreciative! Thank you! Some Important Dates...The Thursday notices will have a complete listing...
