1st Grade
News
Week of November 14th
Important
News
Many of the kiddos have
used/misplaced their markers and
crayons. Although we do have a
lost and found area our supplies
seem to be dwindling. Please ask
your child if they are in need of
new markers and crayons. Thank
you!
Please remember that every
Wednesday students are dismissed
at 2:35 p.m. for staff professional
learning time.
If you are interested, the students
have another login for you to be
aware of. Frontrowed.com is a
website that students can
practice math on. Some of the
kids call it “The Piggie Store”
because students are able to buy
clothes to dress their Piggie with
coins earned from successfully
answering math questions. Your
student’s login is their first name,
the initial of their last name. Our
class code is chatey.
I hope you and your kiddos enjoy!
Hello Parents,
Students have been re-evaluated with their
new reading levels. Information on their levels will be
sent home with their report card. If you feel you need
to know their current level before report cards please
feel free to contact me.
In reading workshop this week students will
practice understanding dialogue. They will practice
reading dialogue independently and with partners and
then practice reciting the dialogue they read.
In writing workshop students we will continue
writing reviews and practice writing directly for the
audience. We will also write comparisons.
In math workshop this week students are able
to choose between a variety of activities. They have a
non-standard measurement option as well as several
addition/subtraction choices. One new activity
students are working on is writing number scrolls. Ask
your student if they started theirs!
1st graders are preparing for our field trip to
the Arlington Heights Historic Society. Last week we
compared what the world was like the last time the
Cubs won the World Series in 1908 and now The first
grade team was hoping to create a classroom museum
of real life artifacts from life long ago. If you have any
artifacts you could send in to show our first graders,
for example, a rotary phone or record, it would be
much appreciated. Thank you!
