I hope you have a great week. Things are starting to move a little smoother in room #134. Here's the latest news....
*Breakfast - Please let me know if your child is supposed to be getting a school breakfast. I have a large number (13) of students asking for breakfast each morning, but it seems like they are eating breakfast at home as well. While I want everyone to have a healthy breakfast, it is making a huge dent in our morning ELA instruction. Breakfast is in the classroom this year, so we're using a lot of our instructional time to retrieve breakfast, finish eating, and clean up messes. Thank you for letting me know if your child should be eating at school each morning.
*Seesaw - Please have conversations about what your child is posting in Seesaw each week. This will help you gain an understanding if your child is mastering 1st grade skills and giving their best effort. Don't forget that most of the work pictured in Seesaw is what they are doing before I have checked it. You can also have a conversation with them if they aren't entering things in Seesaw. It is their responsibility to enter their work in Seesaw. I am pushing independence and responsibility in the classroom!
*1st Day Forms - I am still missing a few 1st day forms. Please send those in by the end of next week.
*Homework - Make sure your child is reading a minimum of 15 minutes each night. It would also be helpful if they are practicing their addition and subtraction facts at home. The "Math Fact Cafe" link in the "Helpful Links" section of the blog will allow you to print off fact fluency sheets. Let me know if you need any help with that site.
Have a great weekend!
