Hello!
We have a new Personal Success Factor this month...ZEST! Please check the Character Education tab to learn more about what it means to have zest. Or better yet...ask your kiddo:) Students will be drawing pictures of themselves showing zest to add to the Personal Success Factor wall!
1st graders are starting a new Science unit next week...states of matter: solids, liquids and gases. We need some materials for our experiments. If you are able to, please click on the Slyreply link to sign up to bring something in. Thank you sooooo very much for helping us out!! http://www.slyreply.com/app/sheets/roq8u5u4d5it/
There is a flyer coming home about a special guest author coming to meet with 1st grade. Her name is Joan Arent and the flyer will give you information on where to find her books.
Also, look in your child's Thursday folder for their "Square 1 Art" packet. This a chance to purchase some of your child's artwork on various forms of media. They are really neat!!
We will have our first field trip next Wednesday December 7th to the Arvada Performing Arts center to see a Junie B. Jones play and do a solar system themed art project. PLEASE SEND A LUNCH WITH YOUR KIDDO UNLESS YOU ORDERED ONE FROM THE LUNCHROOM. We will be leaving school promptly at 9:15. Can't wait!!
FYI--there will not be any chaperones on the fied trip other than the teachers and paras due to limited space. Thanks for understanding. There will be more opportunites to chaperone later in the year.
Your child's last Math assessment is coming home (Unit 3). Please take a moment to look it over with your child and give them feedback on what they did well and one area to work on. They did awesome!! It is a copy, so you may keep it:)
Literacy Family Engagement Night
