Hello and happy weekend everyone! Here are some reminders for the 3rd week of the 2nd 9 weeks:
*Bible verse Joshua 1:9b
*Math test Tuesday - practice combinations from families 4 - 7 for this
*Phonics test Wednesday - practice spelling list 6 for this
*Bible memory verse test Friday
If you haven't already signed and returned your child's Accelerated Reader form
Also, our field trip to Dewberry Farm is Thursday November 3. If you haven't already done so, please turn in your child's field trip permission slip so that your child may go on this trip. If you are driving please also remember to turn in your completed driver's form. We already have enough drivers for each trip, but if you would like to come as a chaperone, please let our room coordinators know. Also, if you come as a chaperone, the cost is $6, but this trip is free for your child. Remember to have your child wear their field trip shirts and long jeans on the field trip.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us.
Blessings,

Weekly Update 10/21/11
Happy Friday everyone!
I hope this message finds you all having a good week. The children were excited to get their class t-shirts today. Just a few reminders - Be sure to fill out the field trip form in order for you child to go on the trip to Dewberry farm on November 3. The trip is free for the children. If you are going as a driver or an adult chaperone the cost is $6.
Also, in math, we are introducing the 7 subtration family. For practice, it would be a good idea to go over combinations from the 4 - 7 subtraction & addition families.
Blessings,

Weekly Update for 10/18 - 10/21
Hello all,
This is our update for October 18 - 21, since we won't have school the 17th.
We want to emphasize how important it is for you to practice the spelling words with yourkiddos each night we have homework. This will help your child to perform well on phonics tests since spelling words are a major part of phonics tests. It is also important to read the assigned reading pages with your child each night we have reading homework - this should help strengthen your child's reading skills.
We also want to clear up some confusion about the conduct charts. If your child has 5 marks in each area (self-control, responsibility, following directions) they still have an E in each area of conduct. Depending on what type of conduct mark(s) they receive, they can have a total of 15 marks and still have an E :)
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to let us know. We are available for parent-teacher conferences upon request.
Blessings,
Katie Klinke

1st Grade Weekly Update
Dear Parents,
This blog will be one way we communicate to you each week so that your precious children will have the best 1st grade year possible.
On that note, we want to let you know a few things that will help your child to succeed academically.We want to reiterate how important it is for you to be practicing combinations from the 4-6 families on the blue sheet in your child's white binder for 5-10 minutes every night. It would be most helpful for you and your child to really focus on subtraction problems from those families.
Also, a friendly reminder - if you would please have your children use the bathroom here at school in the morning before they come to class, we would appreciate it :)
If you have any questions or concerns please let us know. Your children are a blessing to us, and we are having a wonderful year with them!
Blessings,
