Parents,

Before we know it February will be here along with our 100th day of school! They say time flies when you’re having fun, and I think that definitely applies with this class :). Take a peek below at what is coming up in first grade!

Important Dates/Reminders:

• Our Scholastic book order is due Friday, January 26th. Remember to place orders online using the class code: NNX2P.
• One School, One Book order forms are due Friday, January 26th. Remember, you only need one copy of the book per family!
• Popcorn Friday will be on Friday, January 26th.
• PE apparel order forms are due Tuesday, January 30th.
• We have an Early Release Day on Friday, February 2nd and no school February 5th-6th (Monday and Tuesday).

Reading: As we continue through non-fiction, we will focus on our reading strategies (chunky monkey, stretchy the snake, flippy the dolphin, etc.) and how to use those in non-fiction texts.

Writing: We have just started our “how to” unit and will work on writing the steps for how to blow a bubble (we’ll even test this out with our own gum!), how to make a snowman, and how to make a s’more.

Math: As we continue through unit 4, we will work on counting on from a 2-digit number, adding tens and ones, and comparing 2-digit numbers.

Spelling: We will have a spelling test, a sentence dictation, and will focus on color words.

Enjoy your weekend with your first grader!
