Math Workshop Begins
Both First Grades will be starting Math Workshop this week :) Therefore, our Learning Targets will remain consistent during this first rotation. Be sure to check in with your student Tuesday-Thursday and ask them which Learning Targets they worked towards!
(Learning Targets are posted throughout the week via Twitter: @mrswilsonsclass and are also posted on our classroom Facebook: MrsWilsons FirstGrade. See what we are learning today!)
First Grade Best and Habits of Mind
I use this language throughout our day reminding students of how we are Striving for Accuracy and Precision (Habits of Mind). They seem to want to rush, rush, rush, and then we run into silly mistakes or sloppy handwriting which in turn makes it very hard to read our work and shoe our true knowledge. Remind your student of this as they do homework with you. Even though our Words of the Week handwriting page may seem "easy-peasy-lemon-squeezy," it should be done with time and care. First Grade Best everyday!
October Scholastic Book Orders
The October Scholastic Book Orders should be turned in by Monday, October 15th. You may order online by clicking on the tab for Scholastic Book Clubs on our classroom website OR send in orders. No Cash Please.
Halloween Party
Mrs. Chapman (Eric's mom) is in charge of our Halloween Party this month. You should have received a note asking for help with supplies for the party. and notifying you of future parties. If this did not make it home with your First Grader see attached note below or let me know if you would like another printed copy.
Happy Birthday to Grant on Monday!
