Holidays are here and in full swing! In the next couple of weeks we will be doing lots of exciting projects and things happening at the Creek. I'm sure your child has told you that we have elves in our hallways watching them!
This Friday is "Polar Express Day!" Have your child wear his PJ's to school and be prepared for a fun day! (Please bring tennis shoes for specials on this day.)
In math we have finished our money unit...but reviewing this concept frequently would help your child. Money is a very hard concept for first graders to grasp... especially when we start adding different coins together. We will start learning about flat and 3-D shapes this week. (IXL is a great tool for reviewing!)
In reading we are working on the main idea of a story. After your child reads to you at night, ASK them questions about what they have read and what the story was about.
Library Day is always Thursday! Please make sure your child is prepared to return and get new books!
Our Holiday Party will be on Thursday, December 22nd. Our room parents are working hard to make sure we have a great time!
Thank you for bringing in paper sacks with handles!! If you ever have any at your house you would like to get rid of... send them in. : )
