Week of 3/8


Last week we celebrated Frankie's birthday!

Happy 7th Birthday Frankie!

We began our money unit!
The kids have loved working with real coins!

Elle created a "100 Day Monster" on SeeSaw!

Last week in Science we talked about the seasons. Room 4 agrees..
bring on Spring!

We had a "mystery bag" activity where the kids picked out clues and had
to guess what season it was!

They did an awesome job:)

Go Frankie!

The students then had to read the clue
to the class.

Go Ben:)

Dear Parents,

I hope this warmer weather stays with us! The second trimester closes this Friday and I can assure you that this last trimester will FLY by. In this final trimester, we really focus on responsibility, independence and self control. We talk a lot about being "almost second graders" and what being in second grade entails. One of the best parts of teaching first grade is seeing the growth that each child makes in 9 short months. Thinking back from September until now they are completely different kiddos! I am sure you see it too :)

Here are the reminders for this week:

- Test folders will be sent home Tuesday 3/9. Please sign and have the folder returned on Wednesday 3/10.

- There will be math test on money on Thursday. We will review all week and a review will be sent home for homework on Wednesday.

- Leprechaun Trap boxes and materials are due next Monday, 3/15! Please place all materials in your child's box. We will be building them in school!

- Friday will be an asynchronous day for students. I will send you the work to complete on Thursday night.

- We will continue reviewing for the Terra Nova tests that will be taken next week. A schedule and some tips for taking standardized tests will be sent home today. If you could make sure you child has a few #2 pencils ready for next wee that would be great too!

- Our yearbook staff is in desperate need of collage pictures and we need your help! Please send pictures of your child from this year - can be school-related or outside of school, group and individual. We are asking for parents to email pictures by March 15th to sksyearbook@sksschool.org and to please label the email with what grade your child is in. It will help us organize the collage pages. We really appreciate your help!!


That's all for now!
