Highlights

We learned to use the website Spelling City to practice our spelling words.  You can also use this website at home.  Go to www.spellingcity.com  and type in the words you want to practice.

Homework

Reading- At this point in time, grade 1 students should be reading about 15 minutes every night.  J

Word study (spelling)- Students will be tested on their spelling list near the end of January.   

Important Dates:

School Calendars and Newsletters are available on the school website to view and print out.

Scholastic book orders are due Wednesday, Jan. 13, 2016.  –Before the break, Ms. Bain and Ms. Hansen gave each student a $5 coupon to buy a book from the Scholastic orders.  Please fill out the coupon and return it with the order form.  If your order is more than $5, just subtract $5 from the total amount.  Students may use their coupon for any of the Scholastic orders from now until June.  (If you have lost your coupon, just attach a note saying which book you want).
