 Mrs. Bali’s First Grade News

May 1, 2026

Review of our Week:

We have had a very busy week.  We have been reading new stories in our readers, learning about America became a country and in math we are working on measurement. We have also been doing some writing pieces.  I have been very pleased with the writing. We finished our testing, thank you for all of your support on that.

Field Trip: 

We will be going to Discovery Park on Monday, May 13 from 9:15-10.45.  Please make sure your child is here on time.  We will leave right after 9.  I am sending home a permission slip.  Please fill it out and send it back.  If you would like to meet us at the park during this time, you are more than welcome to. Please make sure your child has sunscreen on. 

Reading Parents:

I really wanted to thank all of you who have taken the time to come in and read this year.  I know it takes a lot of time, but it really has made a big difference with helping our class learn how to read this year.  This week was our last week.  Thanks again for everything you have done this year.  

Field Day Volunteers:

I still need 1 parent who are willing to come on field day and help the PTA with the activities.  If you can help with that, please let me know.

Mrs. Bali Gone:

I would not normally take this many days off at the end of the year, but my son Rowdy has qualified to go to a bull riding in Fort Worth and compete.  Please remind your child to be good for the sub.  She has been in our class before and she is great.
