Gilbert celebrated Dr. Seuss’ birthday Friday, March 6 with Thing Hair, Gak making, and computer games. We read Dr. Seuss’ books all week and had a great time learning about his work! Homework notes:
Please be sure to check the homework sheet nightly, as our homework is changing a bit. First graders are working hard in preparing for the CRCT (annual end-of-year test), which takes place April 20 – 24. Please help your child to work hard these next few weeks to prepare him/herself for the exam. I don’t want to stress them about it, but we all need to be focused during the school day and working hard. They will be rewarded after the exam IF they truly tried their best. MARK YOUR CALENDARS!
