This week we will welcome a new student to our class on Monday. In Writing Workshop, we will learn when to use capital letters and practice writing friendly letters. We will meet our 8th grade Reading Buddies this week. Five eighth graders will come to read with five first graders every afternoon for about 15 minutes. This is a great program which helps our first graders become better readers and helps our eighth graders learn how to work with children.
We will have Library for the first time on Wednesday afternoon. Students will be able to take home one book. Please return it by the following Wednesday.
We have also started using the Computer Lab. We are working on mouse control by trying to stay in the lines when we color a picture on the computer.
In Math, we have finished Unit 1. We will have an assessment on Tuesday. Our new chapter is about Everyday Uses of Numbers. We will learn how numbers are used to tell time and count money. Look for HomeLinks to come home for homework.
Please remember that we are always in need of baby wipes and Clorox wipes.
