Week of August 18, 2008

Parents, thank you for helping us get back in gear and in a routine of first grade. We seem to be getting used to first grade and are already becoming a close class.

This week we will be studying numbers up to 20. We will be collecting, comparing, and creating pictures of numbers to 20, as well as learning about the number line.

We are writing every day, and are excited to share some of our stories during PTO.

Reading is also underway, with all testing over. Nonfiction and fiction will be introduced this week.

Please work with your child nightly on homework.
