Johnny Appleseed and St. Patrick's Day Fun!

Hello friends and family! We are gearing up for an exciting week in 1st Grade! We will be learning about Johnny Appleseed this week and the life cycle of an apple. If you have any apples at home, encourage your child to open one up this week and look at it's seeds.  You can expect to hear lots of information about apples from your children this week!

We will be sending home report cards on Friday. Our children have been working so hard on their reading skills! I am very proud of them - you will get their current reading level with their report card.

On Thursday and Friday of this week, our children will experience St. Patrick's Day activities. We will have special snacks on both of these days. We are in need of lime sherbet, sprite and cups. We are also collecting metal or plastic coffee cans. Don't forget to dress your child in green on Friday!

Our spelling words this week are:

check  checking

sleep  sleeping

miss   missed

tell   telling
plant   planted


Our sight words this week are:
butter  carry  work    kind  person   put
   saw   were  liked  moving  stopped

Important Dates Coming Up:
Tuesday, Mar 13 - Health Night at Hillcrest
Friday, Mar 16 - Report Cards
Tuesday, Mar 20 - Teacher Inservice - No School
April 2-6 - Spring Break - No School

Have a great week!!

Mrs. Duggins
