Dear First Grade Families,
It’s hard to believe the school year is coming to an end soon!
For the last 26 days of the school year, we will have an Alphabet
Countdown! This will start tomorrow, Friday, April 29th. You will find a
calendar of themes/activities on the back of this letter.
Your child may want to bring certain items on various days.
These days are recognized with an * in the box.
We hope the first graders enjoy last days in first grade. We have
truly enjoyed working with your children this school year. They are
ready to be 2nd graders!
Sincerely,
The First Grade Team
