Happy New Year to all my first graders and their families. I am looking forward to seeing everyone on Wednesday. Homework packets will be going home with your child on Wednesday, but they will only need to do Wed and Thursday activities and reading log. We will be implementing station time this week and students will have time to work on spelling words in class to better prepare for their spelling tests on Fridays.
I have set up an account on Spellingcity.com. I will be sending account information home with your child in the coming days.
Remember next Wednesday (Jan, 9) is the parent workshop in my classroom at 6:30pm. If you are planning on attending, please make arrangements for your child(ren).

Last day of school for 2012
Brighter Christmas is down almost 50% in food donations this year over last year. If you can please consider sending in a can or two tomorrow. Or contact Brighter Christmas to see how you can help a family in need this holiday season.
If you haven't already, please send in a new wrapped book for the book exchange tomorrow. Some of the children have asked, so you may want to remind them they will be coming home with a DIFFERENT book then the one they bring. :)
I have decided not to send a packet home over this break. Instead, those students who I think could benefit from additional work over the break will get a small packet. If your child comes home with it, please take the time to look through it together and help where you can. I know it is hard to make time to help with homework, but TRUST ME, the reward is WORTH IT!
Please continue to read with your child over the break. And talk to them about what they have read. We will be working extensively on comprehension in the new year.
I wish you all and safe and happy holiday season. See you all in the New Year!!!
