This month we celebrate the joy of reading. Please take a few moments each day to have your child read to you. This is also a great way to fill your child's yellow reading log. If you have lost your child's reading log, please let me know so that I can provide a new one. Every student should be reading for twenty minutes a day. Research shows that by reading twenty minutes a day, students make huge growth with their reading abilities. Reading logs will be collected at the end of the year and any student who has filled five pages of his or her reading log, will be be rewarded with a reading party. Keep on reading!</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
This Wednesday is an early release day. The students will be dismissed at 1:50 pm. Monday is spring picture day. We have a Galaxy meeting this Wednesday so make sure that your student wears his or her galaxy shirt. Kindness Club will meet this Thursday from 3:45-4:45. Please remember to have your child wear athletic shoes on Monday and Thursday for Kinetics. Library books should be returned on Wednesday and are due back Thursday.</div>

This Thursday we will be traveling to the Abrams Planetarium to watch the play "The Rabbit in the Moon". This will be a wonderful experience for our first graders. This field trip is for students and teachers only due to limited seating. All permission slips were signed at the beginning of the year so all students are set to attend this field trip. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This Wednesday and Thursday are parent teacher conferences. Please make sure to attend your scheduled day and time. If you need to reschedule, please let me know as soon as possible. Please be prepared to discuss your child's academic and behavioral growth this year. I look forward to speaking to each and every family at conferences. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This Wednesday is a full day of school. This Thursday and Friday are half days. No lunch will be served on these days. Please remember to have your child wear athletic shoes on Monday for Kinetics. Library books should be returned on Wednesday and are due back Thursday. Please make sure to send in snack on your assigned snack day. We were short snack several times last month. A new snack calendar was placed in your child's binder.</div>

On Thursday, our class will be spending a small amount of our afternoon celebrating Valentine's Day. We will be decorating a bag to collect Valentines and then passing our Valentine's Day cards out to our friends. We will not be having a big party to celebrate Valentine's Day as our time is limited due to having two specials in the afternoon. Your child may bring in his or her Valentine's Day cards on Thursday or before Thursday. Please make sure that your child writes each child's name on his or her Valentine's Day cards. The students love delivering their cards to their classmates by reading the names and locating each student's Valentine's Day bag. Thank you for your help with this at home.<br />
<br />
This Wednesday is a full day of school. There is no school this Friday or next week. This Wednesday is a Galaxy Day. Please make sure that your child wears his or her Sycamore shirt.

Since we have experienced some inclement weather, please make sure to send the appropriate winter gear with your child each day to school. Students should wear snow pants, boots, a warm winter coat, a hat, and insulated gloves. Students are required to go outside unless a doctor's note is provided stating the reason for them to stay inside. We also do not go outside if the windchill or temperature is below 0 degrees. Students should also have shoes so that they can change out of their boots. This really helps to keep our classroom floor from becoming slippery. Thank you for your support with winter gear!<br />
<br />
I will not be in the classroom this Monday. Instead, I will be attending an all day training. If you have any questions or transportation changes, please make sure to email me or message me immediately.<br />

Welcome back! I hope that you had a wonderful break with your family. I also hope that this break allowed your child to get well if he or she was not feeling well before break. As we get back into the swing of things, we will be taking time this week to focus on reviewing routines and classroom expectations. Please allow your child time to readjust to his or her school environment. <br />

This Friday will be our annual first grade holiday breakfast. This is a time for students to enjoy eating breakfast together while also making a gift for their families. Since we want to keep that gift a surprise, this holiday event will be for students only. However, I am hoping that you will be able to donate one of the breakfast foods that were listed on the note that was sent home. I am sure that the students will have so much fun!</div>

Students not attending the holiday shop, will stay with me in the classroom to continue our learning. Envelopes should be turned in no later than Friday morning. <br />

This Friday is our annual Winter Walk-Through. In preparation for our Winter Walk-Through, your child received a gingerbread man to decorate on the Friday before Thanksgiving break. I hope that you had a chance to be creative as a family and decorate your child's gingerbread man in a unique way. Please make sure to send your child's gingerbread man in as soon as possible. I will be displaying them for the Winter Walk-Through. If your child was absent, he or she will be bringing home his or her gingerbread man on Monday.<br />

As the colder weather continues, please make sure that your child has the appropriate winter attire to play outside at recess. Students are required to go outside for recess unless a parent can provide a doctor's note. Students should have snow pants, boots, a warm coat, a hat, and insulated gloves. In addition, please make sure to send shoes for your child. Our boots are kept outside of our classroom to keep our tile floor from becoming slippery. This can only happen if students have shoes to wear so that they can change out of their boots. If you are unable to provide boots for your child, please email me. I will provide a resource for you to use to get boots for your child. <br />
<br />
Changing into and out of winter gear can be a challenge for first graders. Practicing at home can help with this. We practice in the classroom every day, but some students may require more practice at home. Have your child practice putting on his or her snow gear. This will help them to become more skilled and take less time during our school day changing in and out of snow gear. Thank you for your support with this skill.<br />

On Friday, your child will be bringing home his or her first report card of first grade. Please read over your child's report card carefully. Report cards are scored on a progression learning scale. Many students will be receiving 1's and 2's for their first report card. These numbers reflect our continual learning in each subject. A score of 3 would reflect that your child has already met the end of the year goal. If you have any questions regarding your child's report card, please do not hesitate to email or call me. <br />

This Friday is our Field Trip to the Sea Life Aquarium. If you have not turned in your child's permission slip and money, please do so as soon as possible. Any students without a signed permission slip and money, will be staying back in a second grade classroom for our field trip. If you are planning to chaperone, please make sure to have an additional $10 in cash on Friday if you have not payed already. We will need this money before we leave. At this point, we are planning on having enough space for all chaperones to ride the bus. However, the bus garage has not officially given us the numbers for the amount of children and parents that can fit on two buses. With over thirty chaperones attending, there is still a chance that some chaperones will need to drive separately. At this point, the students will be eating lunch on the bus. If this changes, I will let you know. Please make sure that your child has a cold lunch on this day. Lunches that can be completely thrown away are best so that no lunch boxes are left behind.

On Thursday of this week, we will be having our Halloween Party in the afternoon. The Halloween Parade will begin at 2:00 pm and our Halloween Party will be shortly after the parade at 2:30 pm. I sent home a note regarding the party last week in your child's binder. If you have not done so, please consider bringing one of the listed snacks. In regards to costumes, please make sure that your child does not wear his or her costume to school. We will be changing into our costumes shortly before the parade. Please leave masks, face paint, and play weapons of any sort at home. At our Halloween Party, we will be eating some snacks and playing Halloween Bingo. The party will end at 3:00 pm so that the students can attend recess. <br />
<br />
If you have not done so already, please send in your child's field trip permission slip and money by Friday of this week. Any student without a signed permission slip, will be staying at school in a second grade classroom while we are gone. We are hoping that we will not need to leave any student behind.<br />
<br />
This Wednesday is an early release day. The students will be dismissed at 1:50 pm. Our library time has been moved to Wednesday of this week because of our Halloween Party.

Welcome back from Fall Break! I hope that you enjoyed your time with your family. As we get back into the swing of things, we will be revisiting routines and expectations. Please make sure to check in with your child's Class Dojo points daily so that you can have discussions with your child regarding positive and negative behavior. <br />
<br />
Our field trip to the aquarium is coming up very quickly. If you have not returned your student's permission slip or paid the $10.00, please do so as soon as possible. Also, for the parents who plan on attending the field trip with us, there is an additional $10.00 that must be paid to chaperone. We are still unsure if parents will be able to ride the bus with us to the aquarium. We have very full classes this year so space is very limited. Please be prepared to drive yourself or carpool with another parent. Sorry for any inconvenience that this may cause. Please let me know if you have any questions regarding our field trip.<br />

Next week will begin fall break. Please make sure to have your child read during this two week break. Students can lose their academic growth in as little as two weeks. This is also a great time to work on the goals that we discussed at conferences.<br />
<br />
This Wednesday is a full day of school. This Thursday is Kindness Club. The students will be dismissed from Kindness Club at 4:45pm. If you would still like your child to participate in Kindness Club, please contact me or Mrs. Schaffer. Please remember to have your child wear athletic shoes on Monday and Thursday for Kinetics.

Thank you to all of you who attended conferences this past week! I enjoyed discussing your child's progress with you. This Wednesday will be our second galaxy day. Your child will be learning a lesson from his or her galaxy teacher that will center around controlling impulsivity. Please make sure to have your child wear his or her galaxy shirt on this day. <br />
<br />
Your child will be taking his or her second math test this Tuesday. Please look for the chapter review to come home on Monday and for the test results to come home on Wednesday.<br />

<br />
Conferences will occur on Wednesday and Thursday of this week unless you have scheduled a morning conference on Monday, Tuesday, or Friday. If you
require a different day and time, please let me know so that I can reschedule
your conference. For conferences, please have a literacy and mathematics
goal in mind that you would like your child to work towards for the next
several months. In addition, please bring your child to the conference so
that he or she can partake in setting goals. Each conference will last
approximately twenty minutes and will focus mostly on where your child is academically. <o:p></o:p><br />
<br />
This is the first week for spelling. Your student will take his or her first spelling test on Friday of this week. You will find the spelling words in your child's reading packet. Please review these words daily to help your child prepare for his or her test. On the spelling test page of the homework, your student can simply write each word twice.<br />
<br />
This Wednesday is a full day of school. Please remember to send athletic shoes with your student on
both Monday and Thursday for Kinetics. Library books should be returned
on Wednesday but are not due back until Thursday. <o:p></o:p><br />

<br />
We are currently running low on snacks. In your child's binder, you
will find a calendar that will have your child's name listed for the day that
he or she will need to bring in snack. A few student's names are not
listed and will be listed on the following month's snack calendar. If you
are unable to provide snack on your student's day, please let me know so that I
can purchase snacks. Thank you for your support!<o:p></o:p><br />
<br />
I still have quite a few parents that have not signed up for a conference yet. I will be sending an email this week to any family that still needs to sign up. If you are having a difficult time accessing the website, please email or call me to let me know. I can't wait to discuss all of the learning that your child has been doing this past month. <br />
<br />
This Wednesday is an early release day. The students will be dismissed at 1:50pm. Please remember to have your child wear athletic shoes on Monday and Thursday for Kinetics. Library books should be returned on Wednesday and are due back Thursday.<br />

This Wednesday will be our first galaxy day. On galaxy days, your student will be traveling to a different classroom to complete a lesson with his or her galaxy teacher. Each classroom will have a mix of kindergarteners, first graders, second graders, third graders, and fourth graders. Our lessons will focus around the habits of mind skills that our entire school is learning. Your student will return to our classroom after about a half hour. Your student will be receiving a school t-shirt that we would like him or her to wear on each galaxy day. Your student will only receive one t-shirt so please make sure that he or she takes care of it. Additional t-shirts will need to be purchased. I will notify you before each galaxy day so that your student knows when to wear his or her shirt. </div>

This Wednesday is an early release day. The students will be dismissed at 1:50pm. There is no school this Friday. Please make sure that your student wears his or her athletic shoes on Monday and Thursday of Kinetics. Library books should be returned on Wednesday and are due back Thursday.</div>

This week your child will be taking their first math test online. Please look for the chapter review to come home on either Wednesday or Thursday of this week. Please review the problems with your child so that he or she is prepared for the math test. Typically, the questions on the review are similar to the questions on the actual math test. I will then be sending home a score sheet with your student so you can see which questions he or she answered correctly. If you would like to view the questions that your student missed, I will be sending home a Think Central sheet that will explain how to access your child's account. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to message me or email me. </div>

If you have not logged into Class Dojo yet, please do so as soon as possible using the access code that was sent home in your child's binder on the first week of school. This system is a way for me to continually communicate with you regarding your child's behavior. Class Dojo also is a wonderful tool for me to post pictures of what we are currently working on in class. I also use this application to communicate with you in a form of messaging. This allows you to message me with any questions that you may have regarding your child's homework, behavior, or learning. You can also customize your child's account by changing your child's Avatar. Many of the students have expressed how they would like to change their Dojo Avatar. If you are having difficulty viewing your child's account because it is logging you into last year's teacher, use the access code that I sent home to make sure that you are accessing our classroom's Dojo instead of his or her class from the previous year. If you need another paper for the access code, please let me know.</div>
