Fire Safety/Columbus Day

Happy Christopher Columbus Day! Ask your student why we still celebrate Christopher Columbus in 2012!

This week is Fire Safety Week and we will be having a special program tomorrow afternoon that will help us remember to stay safe both at home and at school.

I just updated Spelling City with this week's spelling words and sight words. If you are looking for a fun way to review the spelling words, click on the Spelling City link to the right of this post.

Have a wonderful evening!

Don't forget that we have the Book Fair tomorrow from 1:30 until 2:00! You are welcomed to come help your student shop!

Today, your student is bringing home letter cards that we cut in class. We made several words with them. Tonight, you could review the phonics skills we are learning by telling your student words that they can make.  Suggested words: rat, mat, pat, sat, tap, rap, map, nap, ran, man, pan.

Have a wonderful wet night!

Our First Grade Blog

Welcome to our class blog! I am very excited to use this tool to communicate information to you throughout the week! Please reference this page for information regarding upcoming special events, assignments, and tidbits about our day! Some of my favorite educational websites are posted under "Links to Learning." Students love using these websites to learn during the school day and would benefit from visiting the websites at home! I hope you and your student enjoy the blog!

Have a wonderful evening! :-)
