This Week's Newsletter

A hard copy of the weekly newsletter will go home on Mondays, but I will also post it here.


Mrs. Korwatch’s 1st Grade - January 13-17, 2025


Eureka math will focus on lessons 10-14, if you’d like to follow along at home in the Apply workbook.


Yay!  I finished all of the middle-of-year (MOY) math benchmark tests last week.  This week I’ll be completing reading assessments.  At the end of the week, I’ll be contacting families regarding conferences and discussing student progress thus far.  🙂


If you still have your child’s permission slip for the Pied Piper field trip to Thalian Hall, please return it by 1/22.  This is a county sponsored trip and chaperones are not allowed due to limited space. 


This Week’s Optional Challenges:

Students:  Practice writing your trick words and work on your Pizza Hut Book It goal. 

Unit 6 trick words

were, are, who, what, when, where, there, here

Unit 7 trick words
