Dolphin Digest

Last week, the excitement ran high as we discovered the "mystery project" was a scarecrow, and we had the opportunity to craft our unique creatures! We named them and are writing stories about them as they proudly stand outside our classroom. Under Ms. Winglass' guidance, we learned about the four main phases of the moon. We had the opportunity to physically demonstrate the phases, as well as document them on our iPads. 

This week, we will move to short "o" in phonics. We will continue with number models (equations) and solving word problems in math.

Our Fall Festival activities will be occurring the morning of Wednesday, October 30, in place of a Halloween party.We do not dress up in costumes in first grade. That is a special activity reserved for our kindergartners. We will have light refreshments after lunch keeping allergies and healthy choices in mind. If you would like to send something in please email our Room Mother, Lynn Girard. Also, if you can help with the center activities for the morning, please send me a note or email. Thanks in advance for your help. It is always a fun morning.

In your folders today, you should find a scheduled conference time for us to get together and share your child's progress. Please check it out and sign and return ASAP.

Our thanks to Mrs. Adams, Mrs. Gaynor, Mr. Schroeter, and Mrs. McNeff for helping in our classroom last week.

Thanks for your attention,
