Week of September 28, 2015
Parent Information:
1. The PTA membership drive is still going
on!! Send in your membership form
and help our class win a class party!!
Extra membership forms are available
in front office and PTA Room.
What are we learning this week?
Math: We are still composing and
decomposing numbers and will
begin story problems.
Reading/Writing: Sight words will
continue. Please practice them
each night. If your child forgets to
bring it home, all the lists are on my
website. We are also learning new
strategies to improve reading skills.
Guided reading groups are getting
started and students should be
bringing home their guided reading
baggie and sight word baggie each
night for practice and they need to
bring them back to school each day.
We will also begin more of a focus on
writing this week.
IB/Social Studies: Since I was out so
much last week, we will do our
culture projects on Monday. Then
we will begin talking about what
symbols represent the culture of our
classroom. We will create a class
crest that represents Ms. Chancellor's
Class culture and will present it to the
other first grades on Friday.
2. Next week will be early release for
students (12:50) so that teachers can
meet with parents. I am required to
meet with every parent. I will be
sending home a reminder of the time
you signed up for at Meet the Teacher
night. A few parents still don't have a
set time, so I will be getting in touch
with you this week to work out a time.
3. Please help your child with learning to
tie shoes. Your help with this is
appreciated.
4. Great news! The Borman Library will
begin staying open until 4:30 every
Monday in order for parents to come in
and check out books. A variety of
books at home for first graders to read
is essential to their positive
development in reading and writing!
Please take advantage of this
awesome opportunity!

free to contact me anytime!
