Field Trip to Children's Museum!
All first graders will be taking a field trip to the Children's Museum in January. Mrs. Hoffmann's and Mrs. Yungerberg's classrooms will go on Jan. 24. Ms. Hayes and Mrs. Kingston's classrooms will go on Jan. 31. We leave leave school at 12:00 and be back by 2:15.
Because we will be at the Children's Museum during our regular lunch time, we will instead be having a picnic lunch in our classroom that day. Students have the option of bringing a cold lunch from home or eating a sack lunch from the school's food service. If you choose a lunch from school, money will be deducted from your child's lunch account. The form will be coming home soon where you can state your choice. Please return this form by Jan. 17.
Snow Gear!
When snow is on the ground please make sure students have hats, gloves, jackets, boots, and snowpants each day. Students go outside before school and during recess every day.
Specialist Schedule
Sight Word Books
Please try to practice your child's sight word books each night. 5 minutes each night is enough to make a big difference. Knowing sight words is essential to becoming a fluent reader!
Reading Bookmarks
Make sure you are reading and recording your minutes each night on your student's bookmark. Students will get to earn different prizes when the bookmarks are brought back each month.
Please Collect Pringles Cans!
Later this year, first graders will start their own number scrolls. Scrolls are kept in Pringles cans in the student's desks. Please send in any Pringles cans that you have to your child's teacher.
