First Grade News
March 22, 2013
Our first grade students have been working extremely hard this week. In math we are adding and subtracting two digit numbers. You need to continue to help your child learn the basic addition and subtraction facts. Two other concepts we are learning in math are telling time and counting coins. Please continue to practice at home on these concepts.
One skill all students need to improve in is reading fluency. If your child is struggling, have him/her read the same passage multiple times. Your child needs to pause at the end of sentences. I tell them they need to take a breath. The students are taking A/R tests on their reading stories and their library books. When your child reads a book to you, it really helps comprehension if you ask questions.
Easter Party
Our Easter party is Friday, March 29th. The party time is 1:30-2:30. However, our egg hunt will be earlier in the day. Please send eggs and a basket with your child that morning.
Spring break is April 1st – 5th.
