February 10 Newsletter

Mrs. Bali’s First Grade News

February 10, 2017

Review of our week:

         The weeks just seem to go faster and faster.  We had a very good week. In math we took our test on Greater Than and Less Than.  We did really well on this test.  If you help your child fix any problems they missed and have them return it, they can get 100%.  We wrote about “What a Friend is….” and we wrote a 5 sentence descriptive paragraph.

Homework:

         I know there are less days in the month of February, please make sure your child is reading everyday.  Reading records are due back at the end of the month.  Even if your child has not filled in every heart, please have them turn it in.  I would really like to see how much each child is reading at home. I have several students who are not bringing their Take Home Book back.  The Take Home Library is a great resource, please take advantage of it. 

         I just wanted to remind you, that your child needs to be instructional on level J to be on grade level for the end of the year.  To be on track for that your child needs to be an instructional level F-G.

        

FYI’s:

* Keep saving those Box Tops, this is a great way to earn money for our school.  If you have any please send them by Friday, February 17.

* Let me know if you are interested in doing a Family Fun Day.
