Mrs. Bali’s First Grade News

November 2, 2017

Review of our week:

We started a new chapter on subtraction. I am so happy about the reading levels.  I can really tell who is reading at home.  It is making a big difference with their reading abilities.   

I haven’t had anyone bring information about a Veteran.  If you have one and you have not sent it, you can do it next week.

F.Y.I’s:

*Please make sure your child is brining at least a jacket if not a coat (we will need them soon) everyday, as it starts to get cold.  You never know from 1 day to the next what it will be like when we go out.  We go out to recess 3 times a day.  They need something to keep them warm.

* Library is on Tuesday for our class.  The last couple of weeks several in our class have not brought their books back. Please make sure your child has their books back on Thursday.

* If your child is absent you need to call the office and excuse them.  If the school has not heard from you by 10:00, somebody will be calling to check on them.  Please take the time to call or send an email.  If you send a note to me, please let the office know as well.  I don’t always get notes in time.

Book Orders:

         I am sending home the Book Orders for November. If you are ordering books for Christmas just let me know, so I can pull them.  If you would like to order books they are due back by Thursday, November, 8^th.  If your child has had a birthday or has one coming up I am sending home a certificate for them to pick a book for their birthday.  Please send it back to school with your child.
