Week of October 1st

It is hard to believe that we are already in October and just a few weeks out from the end of the first quarter! Quarter 1 ends on the 24th. We also have Fall Break this month. There is no school the 15th-19th for Fall Break. Because attendance for the first quarter determines our schools budget for the year, we really encourage you to have your student in school every day! Please use Fall Break for doctor appointments and vacations if at all possible!

Sight Words:
We have five new sight words this week. They are:

1. big
2. him
3. and
4. not
5. got

Math:
Last week I sent home a checklist of all of the skills we are working on this quarter. This are the things that will be on your student's first report card. Feel free to work through them with your student periodically to get an idea of where they are at. If you have any concerns, please let me know.

Homework:
Your student should have brought home this week's homework in their Home Folder today. I tried really hard to go around and make sure each student go their homework from their mailbox and into their folder :). It takes practice! I am keeping track of their homework completion through Infinite Campus which means you can track that  grade on your Parent Portal. If you have never heard of the Parent Portal, please contact Mrs. Brown to get your code. I can walk you through how to use it as well, I just don't have access to your code.

Please feel free to email me with any questions or concerns!
