First Grade News for week beginning November 18,2024

Reading: Our end of unit activities are to practice and master all of the prior weeks’ words, and begin the research of a zoo animal. Parents, we may need your help as your child examines print and digital resources.

Math: unit 6 Subtraction from 20. We will be using fact families and number lines as well as drawings.

Social Studies: First graders will learn about the first Thanksgiving and modern traditions.

Moby Max: All students now have a QR code on take-home folders, so they can easily log in to Moby Max after school hours. We are seeing tremendous growth, please take a look at what your child can do!

Remember you can always order from Scholastic Book Club using the first grade class code: YRWZB

Important Dates:

This week is collection week for shoebox Christmas gifts. It would be most convenient to have our box stuffed by Thursday. I hope your child will consider donating a small toy or school supplies for a child from a third world nation.
