Zoo Day!

Thank you again to all the chaperones who helped make our day at the Detroit Zoo so great!  The children had a wonderful time, and I am happy they were able to end their LAST full week of First Grade with such a special, fun memory with friends!  We couldn’t have done it without you. 🙂

<3 Mrs. Dennett & The First Grade Team!

Coming home with your child today: a print-out of their official NWEA test results for Spring 2017.  Please double check your child’s folder to be sure you receive them!  Also, since we do not have school on Friday, we will take the Spelling Test tomorrow (Thursday!).  My apologies for the late notice!

Happy Memorial Day! Enjoy the four day weekend. 🙂

Week of 5/8!

Congratulations to my class for successfully completing their end-of-the-year testing!  We had a “fancy” indoor recess this past Friday to celebrate, complete with “restaurant,” animal habitats, blocks, and a sorting station!  I think “restaurant” was the overall class favorite. 🙂

Spelling homework will be sent home tomorrow, as the copy machine in our hallway was being fixed today. Also, please remember to send in your child’s permission slip and money for our Field Trip to the Detroit Zoo by this Friday, May 12th.  I have attached a hard copy of the Field Trip note I sent home last week (Field Trip Information – Detroit Zoo).  Thank you so much!

 

NWEA

It’s that time again! NWEA testing for our class begins next week (Monday, May 1st).  Please see attached document.  A hard copy will be sent home with your child today! PARENT LETTER – (EOY, 2017) NWEA TESTING INFO.

Week of 3/06 – Reminders

Few reminders!

  • Our class is scheduled to go to the Book Fair this week on Wednesday, March 8th, from 12:30-1:00 PM.
  • Henry Ford will be collecting money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (‘Pennies for Patients’) throughout the month of March.  Please have your child collect loose change in their collection boxes (sent home on Friday). Students can bring their boxes to and from school to donate to our classroom collection box.  Our classroom also has an online donation page.  The link to Mrs. Dennett’s (Fields’) classroom page is also listed under the ‘Website Resources’ tab.  Thank you in advance for your generosity and support of this very important cause!!
