Word Detectives and More...

During reading time, our students have earned their word detective badges as they've completed detective missions from headquarters (all in good fun, of course). Their missions have included being on the lookout for tricky words, using everything they already know to solve those words, and doing a slow check if necessary. They have done very well!

In writing, we have moved on from personal narrative to procedural writing (how to writing, in first grade parlance). Talking to your students about the steps needed to do things (first, we turn on the water, next we fill the watering can half way, third we...) is a developmentally appropriate way to help your child with this procedural writing and thinking. Today, for example, we made toast, and discussed and wrote about the steps in class. 

The Halloween Happening is tomorrow at 5:30! I plan to attend, and I look forward to seeing those of you who can join us there! Thank you!

It was so wonderful meeting all of the families during our conference weeks! Please excuse my lack of website updates during that busy time. I am excited to get back to it! 

PTA paid for our students to participate in a six week Starting Arts theater class (thank you Braly PTA). I have just been informed that our final class will be October 12th at 1:50. Our class had a bit of rescheduling due to the early release days for conferences. Families are invited to the final class on October 12th at 1:50 in the cafeteria. Please sign into the office if you are able to attend. I apologize for the late notice!
