First Grade News by Mrs. Landis

November 17, 2008

Math:  We will continue to work on subtraction this week.  These kids are really good!  Thanks for all the help from home!
 
Language:  We will be working with the word family -uck this week.  We will have words from this word family on our dictation test Friday.   
 
Our Word Wall Words for this week are:  there, up, out, them, here.  Please practice these words with your child so they can read them automatically.  They will be part of our dictation test on Friday.
   
Character Trait:  This month, our character trait is Caring.  I will be looking for children showing this trait and giving them a bone.  They can trade this bone for a treat from Mrs. Rusher, then it goes into a drawing for some great prizes at our next Top Dog Assembly.  Please encourage your child to be caring at home, too.
   
Book-it: Keep working on the November list.  Thanks for helping your child earn a free pizza! 
   
Brrr:  This is just a reminder that we go outside for recess every day unless it is less than 10 degrees or raining.  Your child will not be allowed to stay inside unless they have a note from you.  Please make sure they are dressed appropriately for the weather.  It would be a good idea for them them to bring a coat or jacket every day.
 
Snacks:  Thanks for the snacks!  We really needed them!
 
Thunder Reading Program:  On Friday I sent home a blue bookmark for your child to write down books they have read at home.  These can be the same books you write on their "Book-it" list.  Please send the bookmark back when it is full and I will sign it and let you turn it in for a free ticket to a Thunder hockey game! 
 
School Store:  We will be shopping with our bucks on Thursday.  Please remind your child to bring all their bucks to school on that day.
 
Happy Thanksgiving:  Remember that we do not have school on Wednesday through Friday, November 26-28 because of Thanksgiving Break.  Please enjoy this time with your family and know how thankful I am for such a great class.  Thank you for sharing your wonderful child with me!
