Well, your first graders are almost second graders! We are starting the last nine weeks! I'll send report cards home Thursday for the third nine weeks. I'll also send progress reports home in the Monday folder with a sticky note to let you know how many AR points your child has at this point. Each first grader needs 30 points by the end of the year to be able to go to the ice cream party. The ipods have really helped us take more tests because we don't have such a long wait!
Ahna's Angels will sing at Hickory Hill in Prattville this Wednesday. Please remember to dress your child in the Angel outfit Wednesday.
Author Eric Litwin will be here Friday. It's always great to meet an author.
Here is what we'll be working on next week:
Reading --ed/ing endings (double final consonant, drop e), predicting outcomes
Spelling -- Spelling City list 10-1
Language -- multiple meanings
Math -- fractions (parts of a group)
Science -- air and weather
Bible -- Easter (memory verse Matthew 26:41 -- we will go back and finish learning all of Psalm 23)
Have a great weekend!
Mrs. Morrison
