Attendance
It is CRUCIAL that your child is here and on time.
We do so much that is hands on, and any time missed
is impossible to fully make up.
Illnesses etc. are inevitable, but please let me know
why your child is missing. After repeated absences I
am required to notify administration.

Did you know that we spend 50% of our instructional time
on language arts? That includes things like phonics,
reading, comprehension, writing, grammar etc. It is so
important to help your child with these skills at home!
Our reading program offers an online piece for home
reference. Each child will receive a login card- go to the
listed URL and enter the name and password. This will
connect you to all sorts of resources that directly relate to
what we are learning in class. You will also need to use this
for your weekly homework reading selection.
1st grade will
line up near
by the
north-east
doors! We
are on the
orange star
closest to the
doors.
We are lucky to have some special classes MondayThursday. Here is the schedule.
• MONDAY- Library (9:30 AM- remember to
return books)
• TUESDAY – P.E (wear appropriate shoes!!)
• WEDNESDAY – Art
• THURSDAY – Computers
I will use Friday as my regular assessment day. We will have our weekly spelling
tests, math assessments, and language arts assessments. My goal is to get the
assessments back to you by Monday at the latest.
Please avoid missing Fridays as much as possible, and let me know in advance
if you will be gone!
Your help is always needed and greatly appreciated! There are a variety of ways
that you can contribute to the classroom. Please sign up tonight at the long
