Happy November!

We hope you had a great weekend and enjoyed our first beautiful snow! With the cold weather already here, please be sure your child has the appropriate clothing for outdoor play. Also, there have been a few lice cases throughout the school. Please check your children daily and remind them to not share hats and coats.

Also, conference confirmation times will be sent home this week! We are looking forward to meeting with each of you to share your child’s exciting progress for this trimester!!!

Our learning goals this week are listed below.

1. Identify even and odd patterns with shapes and dominoes.
2. Skip counting by 2s, 5s, 10s. Learning goal for first grade is counting to 120. Focusing mainly on 2s.
3. Understand number models/number sentence for addition and introduce subtraction.
