We have had an exciting and busy couple of weeks in first grade! The students have loved learning about our neighboring countries, Canada and Mexico and are looking forward to "traveling" to more countries that are represented in our class. We began to dive into the culture of Mexico this week, and had our very own expert, Mrs. Juline, lead us in Spanish Bingo, share a rice drink, and share with us some literature about the upcoming holiday, Cinco De Mayo!
We have many special events coming up as we head into the last few weeks of school.
Here are a few announcements and reminders for the upcoming week:
Our class is scheduled to perform for the Spring Musical on Wednesday, April 29th at 12:15. We will also have a High Touch High Tech in school field trip earlier that day at 9:30 to learn all about plants! Wednesday will be a fun-filled day!
Mothers, you should have received your handwritten invitation to our Mother's Day Breakfast scheduled for May 7th from 8:15-9:15. If you are unable to be with us on this day, your child may invite another special lady to be their guest. I look forward to seeing you and celebrating YOU! We love you, Moms!
This week is a Junior Great Books week for the story Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
Please also be reminded of the Computer Adaptive Testing that will be taking place this week. Your child will take the Math portion this upcoming Tuesday morning. Please make sure your child is well rested and has a nutritional breakfast.
Congratulations to our newest STAR STUDENT, Reece Perkins! We are proud of our hard working, creative and independent friend. We look forward to learning more about what makes Reece so special!
