The Week of October 28th

Halloween Week is always an exciting time in the life of a first grader!  This week we will compare many different Halloween stories and create ones of our own.  Our class will participate in the Pumpkins and Poetry event.  Check out our poems!  On Halloween our class will be marching  in the parade at 1:45 and then have a small party afterwards. Check out the Halloween rules on the school's main web page.

On Friday I sent home a family poster to create.  I would really like them in on Friday if possible.

Last week was our first spelling test.  Everyone got the regular words correct!!!  Many students also got all 3 bonus words right.  Keep up the Great Work!

Our dog friends visited us on Wednesday.  Everyone had a turn to read to one of the dogs.  Mr. and Mrs. Edkins will return on November 13th and 26th.

We will not be going to the library this week or next week.  Your child can decide if he/she wants to keep the book the whole time or return it to me.

Our spelling words for this week are: am, bad, had, fan, sad, can, find, all, look, book  Bonus Words are: family, brother, sister
