We will:
Count large collections of objects
Add and subtract 10s
Study Long E words (speak, tree, please, beak, etc)
Summarize text
Read fairy tales
STEM
I’d be grateful for continued help growing our collection of items for STEM time: toilet paper/paper towel tubes, egg cartons, duct tape, painter’s tape, popsicle sticks, thin and short dowel rods, and pipe cleaners. If you have any of these items laying around we will put them to good use!
Half Days
We have half days on Thursday and Friday. Enjoy your afternoons!
Masks
Students have been going through a lot of masks lately. I think they’re easier to misplace since there are so many other things to keep track of this time of year. If possible, please be sure your child has extras in his or her backpack.
Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day in 1st grade is very low-key, but we do celebrate! We make our Valentines in class, so please DO NOT have your child prepare them at home. We will have hot chocolate, festive cookies, exchange
Valentines, and watch a movie. This is for students only.
101st Day
We celebrate the 101st Day of 1st Grade in style! This day is a big deal and falls on February 15 this year. The theme is 101 Dalmations. We will be making dalmatian shirts with 101 spots in class. Please send a t-shirt with your Firstie that can be painted to school by February 11th. If you will not be able to do so, please let me know so that I can arrange for extras. White short sleeve undershirts work great. We will enjoy reading the book 101 Dalmatians, fix 101 pieces of snack, and do loads of fun writing and math activities.
Planetarium
Our class will attend a show at the Upton Planetarium on Tuesday, February 17. (February 17 is going to be one amazing day!!) This is for students only.
