First Grade News

No memory or spelling words next week.

Reminder; no school next Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday due to the Thanksgiving holiday.

We will not be sending home a class note or the Friday folder next week.

Please continue to work on the sight words, math flashcards, counting change and telling time to the hour. Add oral reading to the mix and your child will have a lifetime of success!

In today’s Friday folder I sent home the entire Dolch sight word list number 1. By the end of first grade your child should quickly, recognize these words and be able to spell at least 85% of them. Your child is tested orally on these words two times per month.

On Thursday, December 3rd, we will continue our Social Studies unit on the 50 states by learning about California, Colorado, Connecticut, and Delaware. If you have any postcards or other special items from those states, your child may bring them to share on that Thursday. These items will be taken care of and returned to you.

We are very blessed to have you and your child (children) as part of the Zion Family. Thank you for your continued support, and help. Have a happy, blessed Thanksgiving.

In his service,
Miss Schulteis and Mrs. Jaynes
