Yellowjacket Firsties
We LOVE our Firsties!
What is happening in our classrooms?
Open House is THIS Thursday, March 12th
5:30-7:00
We are VERY excited to celebrate this special night with all of our Clinkscale families. In addition, the AMAZING Art Show is the same night. Each year Mrs. Barnard goes above and beyond and transforms the school. Its so very special.
As you know we have been working for over a month on all our Open House writing and projects. The growth from kindergarten to first grade is incredible. Our students go from learning how to write sentences to writing paragraphs. We are so proud of ALL of our firsties.
Lastly, you may have heard about a project to personalize and match their research writing. They are due this Tuesday, March 10th.
Below are some beautiful projects turned in the past few weeks. Way to go Clinkscale FIRSTIES!
What are we learning...
Math: Identifying and counting U.S. coins.
Reading: Word chunking to read more difficult words. Continue to build reading strategies skills.
Phonics: Applying and understanding combination ou/ow within a word.
Writing: Persuasive writing, and continue to focus on sentence formation.
Science: The plant life cycle, and plant parts.
Social Studies: Studies Weekly, Communities.
Report Cards!
Expect your child's report card this Thursday.
We will be happy to schedule a conference to further discuss your child's progress. Please note, we will not be able to openly discuss your child's progress at Open House night due to confidentiality reasons. But, we cannot wait to see you and your family that Thursday night!
Rainbow Reading Log
Rainbow reading cards are still being accepted by Mrs. Elrod.
Even if your child is still on your red card there is still time to complete the reading logs.
Our goal is for ALL first graders to attend the "Purple People Party" by completing all 6 cards by the cut-off date.
Happy Birthday to our March Birthdays!
