I am sending home one sheet of homework for math over the weekend. It should be an easy addition page with coloring involved. We will begin adding and subtracting using a number grid on Monday. In reading, the puppets turned out really well. They are on display in the first grade hallway. The children are getting pretty good at writing paragraphs, but we will continue to work on them. Please don't forget to turn in your $2 for the Valentine's party. Pizza is always a great bonus for the students. My class filled our jar today so I will be planning a day to have a small party for them. I will let everyone know when I get it planned out. Specials for next week are:
Monday - pe
Tuesday - tech
Wednesday - art
Thursday - music
Friday - pe

Have a great weekend and get ready for snow,

Mrs. Rutter

There is no homework again tonight. I hope the students are not getting used to this. We do start a math exam tomorrow and hopefully all students do well on it. We will also be starting our reading book reports tomorrow. So far the puppets look great! Spelling -study, study, and then study some more. In writing the students are doing a great job writing A Special Day paragraph and learning to edit their work. I am very happy to have made it through a full week without someone getting hurt or needing stitches (Amazing!!!!!!).

Thank you parents for all that you do to encourage your child in their lifetime of learning,

Mrs. Rutter

We had a great time celebrating the 100th day of school. There is no homework except to study the spelling words and complete the packet. Thanks for helping your children send in their 100 items. It was great to see all the different ideas they came up with. On Thursday I will be having a homework club from 3:45 - 4:45. Students can do homework and get questions answered during this time. I can also help with individual concerns with some notice.

Thanks,
Mrs. Rutter
