MARCH 18-MARCH 22

This will be a short week with dismissal at 12:30 Monday through Friday.  The Scholastic Book Fair will begin on Monday and run through Friday.  Our class will preview the Book Fair on Tuesday.  Report cards went home on Friday.  You may sign and return them this week when I meet with you for conferences.

Thank you to all the drivers that helped out on Wednesday going to Park Merced.  The first grade along with the 8th grade will be presenting the living Stations of the Cross at school on Friday morning at 8:00.  All first graders will be participating.  I hope you can come.  It is a wonderful reminder of what Lent is all about.

Please continue to work with your children at home counting out money.  We have added quarters and will be spending this week on quarters, dimes, nickels and pennies.  Next week we will begin telling time.

Thank you to those of you that have come in and shared your jobs with the first graders.  It has been a great experience for them.  More of you are coming in this week and we are looking forward to it.

Thank you for having your child read the book in the reading packet and answering the question.  I tried to star all the answers so you knew that I had read them.  Try to vary the questions your child chooses to answer as some are much easier than others.  Please have your child answer the question in a complete sentence.  Remember to initial the reading packet.

There are no vocabulary words this week.  Continue to review the ones that have already gone home.

Have a great week.  GOD LOVES YOU!
