I hope you enjoyed looking through your child’s portfolio and the report card. If you have not returned it to school, please do so by Monday, January 25th.
Thank you to all of the parents who have sent money to help fund our January/February activities! We wouldn’t be able to do it without your help!
In your child’s GO folder today is a form from the office. It is very important that you complete it and return it next week. Thanks!
This week the children learned about the amazing author and illustrator, Jan Brett. Her books are so enjoyable. I hope your child can tell you a few things about her. If you are interested in checking out her website, you can visit it at: www.janbrett.com. Because of the author study, there are no sight word pages to practice this week.
The 100th day of school is coming soon. The first grade students are asked to bring a collection of 100 things. Today I am sending home a ziploc bag with a letter explaining exactly what you need to do.
The school is running out of copy paper. There is currently a paper drive happening. If you would like to send some, that would be great!
I am also including the same information that I gave you last week about valentines.
If you are wondering about Valentine’s Day in the classroom, here is what I have planned for our class. Thanks to Covid, we have some limitations, but we will make the best of it.
*The students will get to exchange valentines on Wednesday, February 10th. *The valentines should be cards only; no candy/treat/pencils etc.
*Students must write who it is to, and who it is from.
*Valentines are optional! However, if your child decides to bring them, he or she must bring one for everyone in the class.
*We are making special bags here at school to put our valentines in, so your child doesn’t need a decorated valentine box.
*Lastly, the valentine cards must be at school by Monday, February 8th.
Have a nice weekend!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Wilson
