"Pages"

Hello First Grade Families!

I hope you've taken some time to explore this blog to see what we've been up to so far in school.  I'd like to introduce you to the Pages section which is located on the right hand side of this page.  You will see several different links.  If you click on those links, they will take you to a different page where you can find even more information.  I'll briefly go over each page, so you know what to expect when you click on that link.

Spelling Corner:
This is where you will find our weekly spelling and bonus words.  You will get a paper copy of these words, but I know sometimes those can get lost!  This way you have the words whenever you need them.  You will also find a weekly fun spelling activity that you can complete with your child at home.  If it's something they can turn in on paper, they will get a smelly sticker if they bring it back to school.  Just an extra incentive to practice spelling words at home!  Once we get past our review in reading, we will have weekly spelling words that will be posted in this section.

Weekly Schedule:
This is where you will find what is happening in our classroom/school/district for the week.  Our specials schedule is on there as well as any special events happening before, after or during the school day.

Homework:
This is where you will find a list of our daily homework assignments and when they're due.  I will also post when certain forms (permission slips, etc.) are due so you're never wondering :).  I am going to try to give homework 3-4 times per week in addition to daily spelling and reading practice.

Scholastic:
This is where you can find a link to our classroom's Scholastic Book Club page.  Our online class code is also on there so you can complete your Parent order online without having to send the order forms or money to school.  MUCH easier and we get special incentives for online ordering!  Win win!

Please take the time to check out those links and as always, let me know if you have any questions!
Have a great day,
:) Ms. Petrucci
