Week of August 24th-28th
Reading and Writing: We will begin our new curriculum! We will be focusing on foundational skills and comprehension skills using Fables. Please be sure to go through your child's folder each day and discuss what they've learned! *We will be switching reading classes soon. As a team, we make it a priority to get to know all 1st grade students in all our school settings. This makes switching between any of the 1st grade teachers seamless. Remember these groups change and do not be alarmed if your child stays with or changes their reading teacher a couple of times this year!*
Math: We will be practicing more addition strategies. Keep practicing addition and subtraction strategies at home with your Firstie!
Social Studies: We will be working through the first unit of How We Get Along in School. We will be talking about why schools have rules. These Firsties are doing a great job of getting into our first grade routines!
Other: Be sure to check their folders DAILY!
Homework: Life Skills homework comes home on Friday and is due the next Friday. Thank you for your support in helping your child learn these important skills.
