Homework+Sheet

First Grade News Week of: August 26-30 This week, we will do several learning activities related to the book __Chrysanthemum__. Our language arts, math, and social studies lessons will coordinate with the story. We will also participate in some fun activities to get to know one another. As a way to introduce ourselves to the class, we are asking that each child bring in a **“Me Bag.”** A letter, along with a paper bag, will be sent home with your child on the first day of school. Please help your child follow the directions to complete the “Me Bag” activity. This will be part of your child’s homework for this week. Our first grade team will be completing daily Saxon Phonics lessons and Math lessons with the children in class. **Please check your child’s homework folder nightly, and be on the lookout for phonics and math homework each night.** We will begin having spelling homework after the first two weeks of school. As a reminder, each class will begin using the Accelerated Reader program as they start going to library class. The **AR folder** will be sent home within the first few days of school. This folder should be filled out by an adult in order for the child to take a test.
