Week 6 - Short and Sweet

Remember When...?

Remember when it was the first day of school?  Can you believe it was six weeks ago?  Here are some cute collages we made of our pictures from that day...

Johnny Appleseed Day

We all had a great time yesterday meeting Johnny Appleseed!  He (she) showed us how to find a star inside an apple and read us a neat story about the house with no door, no windows and a star inside.  Ask your son or daughter where we found that!  Here are some pictures of our visit with Johnny!

(Thanks so much to our good principal Mrs. Rodabaugh!  She's such a good sport!)

Ms. Dickard's Appleseed Class

On Johnny Appleseed Day, Ms. Dickard's class took this fun group photo in their Appleseed hats.
It was a good day in our corner of the building!

Johnny Appleseed Week!

This Friday, September 26th is Johnny Appleseed Day!  If possible, bring in an apple tomorrow if you haven't already.  This makes for a fun project.

Here is a copy of the Newsletter this week. 

Week Four - Ready for More!

With another short week on our hands, you can be sure we'll be hard at work in First Grade.  Here is a copy of this week's newsletter to keep you informed of what's going on in our little corner of the building.

"Zero the Hero" visits First Grade!

On the tenth day of school, we had a special visitor!  "Zero the Hero" made a surprise visit to show us what happens (in regards to place value) when 9 becomes 10!   She was a big hit!  Here's a small recap:

Fee, Fum, Fo, Fi - two weeks of school have passed us by!

Last week, we read a Fiction story a couple of times with a certain character who repeats the phrase, "Fee, Fum, Fo, Fi … "  Ask them to tell you about it!

This week's First Grade Flash is provided below.  Please be sure and stay up to date by reading this weekly newsletter. 

Also - if you have not paid your class fees yet, now is a good time to do so.  We need these funds so we can prepare for field trips, class craft projects, extra supplies, and so on.   A check made out to Perrine Elementary for $25 is the easiest way to do this. 

Here's to a great week!

Week 2 - under way!

Welcome back from a long weekend of fun and great weather!  Here is a copy of our First Grade Newsletter to keep you informed this coming week!
