First Grade Homework Sheet

Week of April 4, 2011

        Thank you again for our successful Bake Sale.  I have purchased 30 Phonics Phones which the students love!!  I can tell that they are already improving their individual reading skills.  The First Graders have gone crazy taking Accelerated Reader tests lately!  They understand how the program works, and they take the reading comprehension tests by themselves.  Most are passing tests with 100%!!!  They LOVE it (and so do I)!

        This Friday will be the school-wide annual Spell-A-Thon.  Please send your SIGNED SPONSOR SHEET that day, and if you need another one, you can get one on the website or from the office.  The pledged donations will be due the Monday we come back after Easter Vacation.  Of course, you can add more pledges during vacation.

        There will be no Learning Centers on Friday due to the Spell-A-Thon; although, we do need two volunteers per class for the event.  If you can be there, please let Rose Garcia know.  We need people here from 8:15-10:00.  Some of the other classes have been having a hard time getting volunteers for that day so we could actually use more than two people.  Thank you in advance!

Monday:  Write Spell-A-Thon words #31-40 five times each;

        Math—“The Race is On!”

Tuesday:  Write Spell-A-Thon #31-40 three times each;

        Math—“On Your Mark”

                                                                Continued……

Wednesday:  Write Spell-A-Thon #31-40 two times each;

        Vocabulary/Science—“The Same and Different”

Thursday:  Take a Practice Spell-A-Thon test #1-40 and write

        Any word you miss five times each;

        Math—“Peaceful Pets”
