First Day

The children and I had a wonderful first day in first grade! We reviewed procedures for bathroom, hallway, cafeteria, carpool and bus dismissal.  We also started practicing daily five time in our classroom.  We have such an amazing group of students in our room!

I know this is going to be an amazing year!!!

Morning Work

Here is the link to your child's reading log.  I expect each first grader to read every night and record what they have read on the log.  The best thing we can do for our kids is to read, read, read with them every day!

Congratulations

First Grade Friends,
Thank you for a beautiful year in first grade.  The children have so much to be proud of! Their play was perfect today and thank you to all of the parents who made it out to see their performance.  You have all touched my heart in your own way and I will cherish our school year together always.  Thank you for everything. 

Happy Last Day of School!

Love Always,
