Happy Friday!  

The students have done a nice job with the tests.  Thank you for making sure that they are always prepared and for being consistent with completing homework.  I sent home the test folders today.  I could not send home the math test and today's reading test because some kids still have to take those tests.  I would also like to remind you that we have our tests first thing in the morning, so please have your child use the bathroom before leaving home.

Happy Friday! We had a very productive week in first grade, concluding with our first test today.  Thank you for studyung with your children.  I will send home the test folders home next week.   Please sign all tests and return them to school.  Just a few reminders:  Please have your child use the bathroom at home before coming to school.  Our first bathroom break is at 9am.  We also let them go as needed, but too many bathroom breaks causes a disruption in our schedule.  

I sent home our 2 Phonics book.  Please write your child's name and class on the cover.  You may cover them with contact paper, but it is not required.  Please send them back to school on Monday.
