September 11, 2026

 We had a great week of learning in first grade!  In social studies, we learned about being good citizens and members of a community. We learned that community members can be leaders, make choices, follow rules and are respectful and responsible. Students can think about other communities that they are part of outside of school.


Fall Book Fair

We are looking forward to the upcoming Fall Book Fair! Our class will be attending the book fair to preview books on Tuesday, September 15th  and to purchase books on Thursday, September 17th.  Families are welcome to visit the Book Fair in the small gym during the Ice Cream Social on Thursday, September 17th from 5:00-8:30 p.m. 


Snack Reminder

As a class we reviewed how to keep our friends safe by being allergy aware.

Snack time is a great time to practice these skills! As a reminder, please only

send fruits and vegetables. Also, please pack your child’s snack in a

separate container from their home lunch.Items in their home lunch cannot be in the classroom if they are

not fruits and vegetables. This will help keep everyone safe and healthy

in our classroom. Thank you!


Over the weekend….

Each Monday students write about their weekends.  Sometimes it is hard to remember what we did come Monday morning.  To help your child during our writing time they will be coming home on Friday with an “Over the weekend” circle map.  Please take a quick minute or two on Sunday to help them fill out their circle maps.

Thank you in advance for the help!
