December 2 Newsletter

Mrs. Bali’s First Grade News

December 2, 2022


Review of our week:

In math we started Chapter 5.  We are working on related facts. We have been doing some fun Christmas things.  We started a new unit in reading.  We will be reading different fables.  I am seeing a lot of progress in our reading.  Please make sure your child reads their take home books and returns the on Tuesday.


Homework:

I know this time of year is very busy.  Remember to have your child keep reading.  Please encourage your child to fill out a tree right after they are finished reading, so you don’t have to try and remember at the end of the month how many days they read.


Cold Weather:

Please make sure your child is coming with a coat.  We go out to recess unless it is raining, snowing or below freezing.  Also, when there is snow they need to have snow boots on to go out in the snow.  If they don’t, they will have to stay on the blacktop.


Gingerbread Houses:

We will be making our gingerbread houses on Thursday, December 15 at 2:00 in the lunchroom.  You are all welcome to come.  It is nice to have some helpers.  We usually need some help with the frosting.  If you would like to send a a bag of candy to decorate with, that would be great.  The candy can be M&M’s, small candy canes, peppermints, skittles, smarties, gingerbread cookies, or anything else you think would look nice on a gingerbread house.  If you can send it by Monday, December 12, that will be great.  That way I will know what I will need to buy.
