Notes from the teacher… 1st Grade Weekly News August 24-28, 2015 Welcome to First Grade I am so delighted to have your child in our class this year! It was nice meeting all of you at Open House. I can’t wait to get to know you and your child as we take a journey together in your child’s education this year. . Please This year, First Grade will be ordering Scholastic News Magazines for the classroom. This is a great way to learn about science and social studies. Your child can also go onto the website at home and play skills-based learning games, print activity lessons and more. We ask that each student pay $6.50 for this. This amount covers the entire first grade year. More information will come home with your child this week. If you would like to order Scholastic books for your child to have at home, information is being sent home this week. You do not have to order books – this is different from our class magazines.
