Dear First Grade Families,                                                                                 9-15-14

Open House is Thursday, September 18, from 6:00 – 7:30 p.m.  I hope everyone can visit our classroom in Room 34 and the rest of Haigh.

Spelling booklets will be sent home today.  Please sign your child’s booklet and have him or her return it to school on Tuesday.  Each Monday students will get a new list of words to study.  Every Friday we will have our spelling test.

Reading homework will begin this week.  Please have your child read for homework for at least 15 minutes each day.  Some days, students will write a response about what they read.  To begin, students can write about their favorite part of the story.

Math lessons include counting practice, addition and using a number line to count.

Social Studies lessons focus on learning history.  We have been discussing ways in which students can learn about the past.

Science lessons include study of the sun, sky and weather.

Each Friday, students visit the library.  Please have your child return  his or her book to school by Friday.

Reminder:  Gym on Tuesday, wear or bring gym shoes.

Have a great week!

Mrs. Dobronski
