Calendar of Events
Sunday, Sept. 23-School Mass day at Holy
Spirit! 12:00
Come join us for mass at noon this
Sunday at Holy Spirit. If you wear your
school uniform, you can get a dress down day from Mrs. Parsons. Find her after mass and show her that you are
wearing your uniform. Hope to see you
there!
Your child’s progress report is coming
home today. The “grades” were mostly
based on classroom observations and participation. I am starting to listen to each child read on
an individual basis and I will share these results with you at
conferences. Please send these reports
back with your child by Wednesday, Sept. 26.
If you have any questions, you can jot me a note on the back or by
e-mail.
I wanted to clarify some information
about homework. Every Monday your child
will come home with some important words on a piece of lined paper. This page is called the Word Preview
page. I would like you to practice these
words with your child, though they may or may not be part of the spelling
review that week. I am asking students
to write those 10 words in rainbow colors on Monday night. I don’t care if each word is one color, or
each letter is one color. The colors of
the rainbow are Red, Orange ,
Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet. ROY
G BIV. If you don’t have the colors
indigo and violet at home, just use purple.
Students are doing really well on the
Daily 5. Today, we Read for 20 minutes
and they could have gone even longer. I
am proud of their hard work and I know that we will just keep getting better
every day! We will be adding Word Work
to our Daily 5 next week.
Look for Trash Bag envelopes coming home
today. This is another fundraiser for a
good cause-a new playground!!
I will be taping a piece of paper in
your child’s planner on Monday. This
page has the website and your child’s User Name and Password for the First in
Math program. I will talk to the
students about this more on Monday, but please ask your child to show you where
it is. It will be assigned periodically
for math homework for those of you who have working computers.
Have a great weekend!
