First Grade Homework Sheet Week of May 23, 2011

First Grade Homework Sheet
Week of May 23, 2011

        This Thursday will be our First Grade traditional “Stone Soup” party.  During our healthy eating unit in science, I always introduce the classic children’s story, “Stone Soup.”  It is a story about caring and sharing, as well as, preparing a delicious vegetable soup.  By the way, it does have stones in it!  Don’t worry; your first grader will explain everything Thursday afternoon!
        Your child has volunteered to bring a specific ingredient for our soup Thursday which is listed on the following letter.  Please do not cut, slice, or prepare your item in any way.  The children prepare everything, with supervision of course.  The other important aspect of this activity is that it is prepared first thing in the morning—please don’t forget to send in the item with your child’s homework.  We can not use it if it comes in at lunchtime!!!!  I don’t want anyone to be excluded so please remember to send it in the morning.  Also, I have no place to store anything so don’t send in your item until Thursday!
        Friday will be Free Dress for First Grade because we brought in the most Spell-A-Thon money!  We will also have board games and videos in the afternoon that day.

Monday:  Write Spelling Words List #32 five times each;
        Grammar—“Lasso Champ”

Tuesday:  Write Spelling Words List #32 three times each;
        Math—“Extra Large Shower”

                                                                Continued….

Wednesday:  Write Spelling Words List #32 two times each;
        Math—“A Tall Order”
BRING STONE SOUP INGREDIENT THURSDAY MORNING!!!

Thursday:  Take a Practice Spelling Test List #32 and write any
        Word you miss five times each;
        Math—“A Reptile Parade”
FREE DRESS FOR FIRST GRADE FRIDAY; BOARD GAMES AND VIDEOS IN THE AFTERNOON!!!!

Dear First Grade Parents,

        On this Thursday, May 26, your First Grader will be making
“Stone Soup.”  This fun activity goes along with our healthy eating lessons we have been learning in science.
        According to the classic children’s story, everyone contributes to the soup, and we would like to do this as a class.
        Your child has volunteered to bring:




        Please have your child bring this item to school Thursday morning.  We will be preparing the soup the first thing so it will not work if you bring the item at lunchtime.  Please do not peel, slice, or in any way prepare this item.  We will do it together that morning.  We will be eating our “Stone Soup” later Thursday afternoon so your child will still need lunch for that day.
        This is a First Grade Tradition, and I thank you for your cooperation!!!

                                                        Mrs. Kondrack
