We are done with practicing NEW Spelling words for the year! Therefore, now it is time to review our First Grade High Frequency Words :) We will break up the 64 words across the next 3 weeks and students will be tested on 22/21 words each week. This sounds like A LOT, but keep in mind we have been practicing these all year. It may be best to look at the list and focus on the "trickier" words for your First Grader. When doing the Spelling Menu homework, feel free to pick and choose which words your First Grader really needs to practice instead of all 22/21. We appreciate any home support you can offer as we get ready to be 2nd Grader Spellers :)
Go Noodle at Home
Has your student shared the brain breaks we do in school? This is a free interactive website we use throughout the day to get our wiggles out, focus, stretch, and practice being mindful. A few families have been asking if this can be done at home and it can! Go to https://www.gonoodle.com/ and click Signup, then signup as a Parent. Some ways you can use this at home:
-Start the day with a positive mindset
-A reward for home responsibility
-Play time
-Get the wiggles out between homework
-Calm down before bedtime
