September 10th - 14th
Our second week was a great success! This week your child began working on a handwriting practice packet, reviewed the three ways to read a book, explored non-fiction texts, brainstormed lists of different colored objects, and continued to represent mathematical situations using a variety of methods.

Homework
Read every night for 10-15 minutes. First grade encourages playing card, dice, and board games to reinforce math, social, and fine motor skills. Home connection worksheets for math will be occasionally sent home and will reinforce what we are learning at school.
Picture Day
Picture Day is Monday, September 24th. An order form for pictures went home with your child on Thursday. If you are purchasing photos you may do so online or with the paper flyer. All students will have their picture taken whether photos are ordered or not.
