Hello Grade One Families:
Tomorrow is a PA DAY. School will resume on Monday January 22. It will be a Day 5 of our cycle.
Here are some reminders for our upcoming week.
1) Our Poetry Folders went home today. We are to read with fluency and expression. The poem is called New Years Resolution. We have a worksheet to complete too and bring back completed on Monday.
2) Our MWW words for Lesson # 45 are /sh/ blends and sight words

Our worksheet is given out on Monday and due back by Friday.
3) Our Decodable Reader is called The Ship . We read this together as a whole class on Monday. We use our decoding strategies and we read for meaning. We build our expression and fluency throughout the week. Please put the copy into their Blue Duotang at home. Please have them read 3-4 times throughout the week and listen to their phrasing and expression improve! Don't forget to read and log too.
4) We are learning to make connections to the text as we read.
5) We are going on a Material Hunt. More to follow next week with a Science letter coming home to help support us build our Playgrounds. We are going to be Engineers!
6) Please dress appropriately to be outside for 2 recesses weather permitting. Extra mitts/socks/clothes are appreciated.
7) We are growing! Please ask us about our likes/dislikes for snacks and lunches. Also, please ask us if our indoor shoes still fit.
8) Please return/sign any Elective forms and send back promptly to school. We are going to the ROC on Wednesday, February 21, 2024. If you need more forms, please let me know.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call or ask.
Have a wonderful weekend with your children.
Mrs. Petramala
