Dear First Grade Parents,
We have school on everyday this week and get out at 1 pm on Wednesday. It was a pleasure to conference with all the parents. I had 99% attendance.
This week we will continue SFA Reading making our word books using the reading patterns we have learned. We will do the read aloud. We will prewrite and draft a summary. In Math, we will review place value, fact triangles and domino facts, as well as fractions and money stories for the test. It will be on Friday. Please come to school on Friday. We will study our phonograms and spelling words in Spelling. In Science, we will continue experimenting with balancing different objects.
Homework this week will be a Math worksheet each night, and reading for 20 minutes. An adult needs to sign the student’s reading log each day to show that they read each day after school. It needs to be turned in Thursday. There will be homework of Spelling five times each word on Monday, each word in a sentence on Tuesday, ABC order for Wednesday, a practice spelling test for Thursday. Spelling test is on Friday.
I will post spelling words on Monday. Sorry for any inconvenience.
Spelling Words: Bonus Words:
1. work 1. worker
2. our 2. you're
3. when 3. whenever
4. print 4. printer
5. fill 5. filled
6. along 6. often

Students began receiving a daily reward for attending school and being on time. They also receive a daily reward for doing their homework: math, and spelling are required. We want your children to have the best opportunity to learn. They can only learn if they attend school. Thank you for helping me teach your children affectively.
All children are expected to be in attendance each day unless they are ill or a family emergency arises. If you know that your child is going to be absent/tardy, please call the office at 807-9668. If your child is absent for a total of 18 days, consecutive or nonconsecutive, excused or unexcused it is seen as truant and excessive. AAL reports all students with excessive absences to the Pima County Attorney’s truancy office. For more information about truancy, visit http://www.pcao.pima.gov/actnow.htm
Thank you,Mrs. Brown
