Bowling Trip, Author's Tea, & a Mother's Day surprise

Sounds we are working on this week are the oo, ew, and, ue sounds! For example words like clue, booth, and crew. This week we begin end of year Reading, Spelling, and Math assessments and will continue this process off and on for the next few weeks!

DON'T FORGET our field trip to go bowling is this Wedneday! Every child needs to wear tennis shoes, bring $3.00 if they haven't already, and bring 2 bottled drinks with lids!

AUTHOR'S TEA! 1st grade is having an Author's Tea on Friday May 24th at 1:00 pm! Parents will come to the class so the children can show you their writing portfolio from this year, and then we will all go down to the cafeteria so the children can share their stories they have written! For this event children are encouraged to dress like their favorite character from a book or story or for example if my students would like to dress up like the animal they have researched and wrote about that would be wonderful too! :)

Mother's Day is coming up and your child will be working hard all week on a few special surprises for you! Here is a little glimpse of a project we worked on today!!
