Mrs. Bali’s First Grade News
November 7, 2025
Review of our week:
We have had a great week. We started our new readers and are reading fables. If I have sent readers before, I will also send this one. You can send the others back at any time. I have been able to move several students in their take home library levels. I can tell you are reading at home. Remember, if your child is higher, they won’t move through the levels as quickly.
Cold Weather:
The weather changes so much from day to day. Please make sure your child has a warm jacket, a coat or both to wear outside to recess.
Book Orders:
I have included a book order. You can click on the link at the bottom on the email and order online. You can order from any order, not just the one I sent home. They will be due on Friday, November 14. If you are ordering books for Christmas, please let me know. I won’t send them home with your child, but I will let you know when they come.
Gingerbread Houses:
We will be making gingerbread houses in December. I have done a Signup Genius with things we could use. It is mostly candy and frosting. If you could donate anything, that would be great. I have seen things in the stores lately and I know they will go fast, so I thought I would put this out now. You can send them any time you want to. Reminder-if you would like to come and help us, you do have to go do your fingerprints at the District Office.
