*On Tuesday, it will be School Store for first grade. Students are able to purchase small school supplies. We suggest that you send in no more than $2 for students to spend at School Store.
*We will begin writing our Non-Fiction books "All About Me." Please send in a photograph of your child to use in their book. You can also email me a picture and I will print it out.
*This week in Spelling, we will focus on words that end with e. We call these words King Ed words. King Ed sits at the end of the word telling the vowel before him to "say your name." For Example kit becomes kite with King Ed at the end.
*In Math, we will learn about frames and arrows, which will help us practice addition and subtraction facts. We will also practice using a calculator to help with skip counting.
*In Social Studies, we are learning about being good citizens. We are also learning about leaders in our country (Neil Armstrong, Clara Barton and George Washington.) We are talking about common character traits of these leaders: brave, hard worker, caring.
*In handwriting, we will continue to work on our lowercase letters. I'm encouraging students to begin using lowercase letters when appropriate. Please encourage your child to start their letters at the top for proper letter formation.
*The class once again filled the pom pom jar from showing expected behavior in our classroom. Last week they voted to watch a "movie." We watched an episode of Super Monsters on Netflix on Halloween morning.
*On November 21st, we will welcome author and illustrator to our school to teach the first graders about being a writer. I am in need of one more parent volunteer for this time (11:50-1:20.) Please email me if you are available to help.
*We had a great visit with Mr. LaCoste this morning. I posted a quick video of the students singing "Don't Give Up on Me" on the seesaw app. Also, be sure to follow the Robinson School Facebook page for more videos and photos which will be uploaded later today and over the weekend. https://www.facebook.com/WPSRobinsonElem/
