Week of 9/17

Mrs. McCoy was our first Mystery Reader of the year!

Dear Parents,

We survived our first full week of first grade! I hope the kids enjoyed it and are settling into school and our routines. I hope that you are continuing to set routines at home and are giving your child more responsibility. The more we work on this the more independent they will become! Be sure to check out the pictures below of our "One Book, One School" activity that we did with our eighth grade buddies!

Here are your reminders for the week:

- Please have journals decorated and covered by this Friday.

- We will have our first school Mass on Wednesday at 9:00am. Please join us!

- We will have our first reading test on the story "Jack and the Wolf" this Friday. I will read all of the questions and answers for the first few tests. The reader will be sent home this week so you can read and review the story at home.

- Our first Spelling test will also be on Friday. We have been practicing a lot with short A words in school. Please review the words at home each night as well.

- Magic Words will also be tested on Friday so please make sure you are reviewing them each night.


I think that is it for this week! Please email me if you have any questions!
