Happy Monday! This week there are two events for your calendar coming up. Picture retakes will be this Wednesday. The photographers will be here for the first hour of school. A white flyer was sent home today with more detailed information. This Friday Upland is hosting Dads and Donuts from 8-9 AM. A blue reminder will be sent home tomorrow. As a reminder, the Thanksgiving holiday means that next week is a very short week. Monday is a normal day, but Tuesday school dismisses at 1:40. Mrs. Allred's fifth graders will be hosting a modern-day feast for our class on Monday. We will eat hot dogs, dried cranberries, popcorn, chips, and juice with them. Your child will not have to bring a lunch with them to school next Monday, but they are welcome to bring a snack for the end of the day.
This week in reading we are reading about what kids can do to help in their community. We will read Franklin Helps Out and Kids Can Help!. We will also work on identifying the setting, characters, and plot while we read those and other short stories. The first graders will also find examples of common and proper nouns throughout the week during reading and writing.
We will wrap up the subtraction chapter and start working with subtraction strategies. This is a quick chapter so we will be able to subtract like smart first graders soon!
Have a wonderful week!
