PETER PIPER PIZZA
It was fun to see so many of you at this fundraiser last week! Thanks for coming out and supporting our academy. WATER BOTTLES Due to the heat, please make sure your child brings a water bottle to school every day. RED FOLDERS, AGENDAS, MATH WORKBOOKS This is just a reminder to send these back to school every day. BLUE FOLDERS These folders will be sent home on Mondays; they contain returned and graded work. Please review them with your child. Also, remember to sign your initials on the log stapled inside the folders. ACADEMICS: Spalding – Spelling words start this week. Students will learn 5 words on Tuesday, 5 words on Wednesday, and review on Thursday. The 10-word spelling test will be on Friday. Math – At this point in time all scholars should have started Xtramath and be completing Xtramath at least 3 times each week. The Xtramath homework is part of the overall math grade each quarter. Also, make sure your child completes each session; incomplete sessions do not count as a completed daily grade. In class, students are studying number bonds, which help students identify the parts and whole of addition and subtraction sentences. We will be sending home Chapter 2 “Friendly Notes” on Tuesday. These notes are an excellent resource when helping your child with math at home. They give the language and examples of things we are doing in class. In first grade every chapter builds on the previous. Please keep the “Friendy Notes” at home so you can easily access them. Geography – We completed a geography review in class and the test is on Tuesday. Science - We will start an introduction to Science on Thursday. Literature – “Different Lands, Similar Stories” – we will be identifying characters, setting, and plot in a story. Grammar – We will be discussing common and proper nouns. Poetry – “I’m Glad” - Work on memorizing this poem at home. UPCOMING DATES: Thursday, August 22 – K-5 Parent Curriculum Night, 6-7 pm (This event is for parents only.)
