What is happing in First Grade?

Weekly Purple Folders: On the calendar, please be sure that you log your child's reading minutes each evening and total the minutes on Friday. Also, the key word list should remain in the folder. This helps us to circle the words your child needs to work on and star the lists that have been mastered.

PE Shoes: Please be sure your child has a separate pair of PE shoes that stay at school.

Field Trip: First grade is going to the Apple Barrel on October 17th or October 19th.

Learning Goals for the Week:
1. Read and write short vowel e words and beginning blends.
2. Write a complete telling sentence: capital letter, punctuation and complete thought.
