4/23

Four more weeks of First Grade! Where did the year go?

May 3rd: No school

May 4th: Field Day in the morning and Movie day in the afternoon.

May 21st: Last Day of School!

In the upcoming weeks students will be busy with wrapping up the last of our learning content and finishing up with any testing we have. Please be sure to email me AND call the front office if your student is going to be absent for any reason. A lot of the testing we will be doing is one on one with me. It will help me with scheduling if let me know ahead of time if your student will be out.

Students around this time start getting excited and distracted by the thought of summer. I encourage students to continue to do their best to stay engaged. Please review school expectations with your students at home. This will help me keep students learning and growing!

Reading: We have been reading and looking at books with mysteries! Our class is LOVING it. They are always asking to read more! I am currently reading The Haunted Hotel which is in the A-Z Mysteries series by Ron Roy. Several students asked if I could send the series title so they could ask you to purchase it😍 (there is set on Amazon). The reading level is high for some of our students but they would love it if you could read it to them!

Math: We have been working on place value and adding bigger numbers. We are trying to see if our strategies from simpler math problems still apply to the bigger numbers.

Social Studies: We will be exploring national monuments and symbols. Students will be able to tell you the symbols meaning and purpose!
