January 9 Newsletter

Mrs. Bali’s First Grade News

January 9, 2026


Review of our week:

We wrote some New Year Resolutions.  I have been really happy with the progress we are making in reading.  Almost everyone has moved up a level. Those will change next week.  If your child is reading on a J or higher, they won’t move levels in their take home book as often.  We have also been learning about astronomy.  

F.Y.I’s

*I wanted to thank you all for the wonderful gifts, cards and notes I received at Christmas.  I really do appreciate it.  I meant to send thank you cards, but I didn’t them finished.

*For this time of year your child needs to be on a F-G instructional reading level to be on track for being on grade level for the end of the year.  That means their take home books would be E-F.  Reading for the 20 minutes every night will make the biggest difference.

*The weather is always changing, please make sure your child is coming with a coat and or jacket and snow boots if they want to be out in the snow.
