First Grade Update - Oct. 18

As you may have guessed the Pumpkin Run was cancelled due to rain.  We'll try again next week.

I did not get back to Frog and Toads today as planned, and now with the run postponed it maybe two weeks before that happens.  It all depends on how our time goes next week after the run.

This week we finished comparing and contrasting animals.  In fact, your child has brought home a sample to complete with you or another adult they spend time with.  I told the children they can do it with an older sibling, an adult from their day care or with you.  I hope they have fun and don't get too frustrated.  They have their previous work to look back on for ideas.

Also, I sent home a one-gallon zippy bag.  We need  your help.  Next week's activity requires many small interesting objects.  To get those objects, I'm asking that you and your child search your home for items that can come to school for the day next week.  All items will be sent home after we are done. I've advised the children not to bring back anything they cherish or would not want damaged as there is always that chance when children are handling things.
