Wed. 3/10

March 10th, 2010

Homework: math review worksheet (63 both sides). Tomorrow is library and girls sharing letter “M”. The class told me they were excellent in the cafeteria today! Woo-hoo!!! Progress is made…one day at a time. We had indoor recess due to the rain. Do you know how old Dr. Suess was on March 2nd? What is his “real” name?!

Tuesday 3/9

March 9th, 2010

Homework: math fact sheet 99; write each spelling word 2 more times and return. Today I received news from the cafeteria supervisor that some first graders are still having problems while eating. I spoke with the class today regarding these problems, including throwing food, dropping food/garbage or wrappers and not picking up, making a mess on the tray by mixing liquids, running around the room instead of sitting and eating their lunch, and a few other things. Please remind your child to mind their manners in the cafeteria. Unfortunately, it takes only a few to ruin the reputation of many. Tomorrow they will sit boy-girl-boy-girl while eating; the next step is in our classroom, with me, without recess. Spring is coming – not a time they want to be inside instead of out. I appreciate your help and so do those students who follow the rules every day. God Bless!

Monday 3/8

March 8th, 2010

Homework: math 99B. Spelling words this week: mail, rain, chain, way, play, day, cute, use, great, know, family; Jesus, leprechaun!  There are still students who cannot spell “Jesus.” I told the class EVERYONE gets it correct this Friday – or else!! Tomorrow we will have boys sharing – something that begins with the letter “M”. Thank you, thank you, for coming to conferences last week! It means a lot to your son/daughter that you were here, interested in how they are doing. I appreciate all of you!

Thurs. 3/4

March 4th, 2010

Homework: math 97B and spelling. Tomorrow we have mass at 8:00am. Many students have colds, coughs, runny noses and the area schools have had many absences. Please remind your child to wash their hands when they get home! We use lots of tissue and hand sanitizer each day, and wash our tables and chairs often. Thank you for your help. Prayers are needed for a special intention – please flood the heavens with prayers today! God Bless You!

March 3rd, 2010

Homework: spelling – write each word “U” word in a sentence. (mule, use, tune, June, flute, cute) No math worksheet – we practiced math facts on the computer today with a cool new game! Ask your child about it (math command). Read alone, with, or to someone for 10 minutes. Tomorrow is library – please remember books. We made “potato people” with our buddies. Do you know what potatoes have to do with St. Patrick’s Day?! Have a nice evening and God Bless You!

Happy March!! Homework: math 95B. I will send home a spelling sheet tomorrow. The words are: use, June, tune, flute, cute, mule, woke, nose, done, after, shamrock. Fr. Jim visited our room today and we practiced making the sign of the cross. (forehead, chest, left, right!) There are still a few who don’t know left and right! It’s always fun to have him visit as he truly enjoys being with the kids and answering their many questions. Spring pictures were taken of all students. No money required now – pictures are sent home and you can choose to keep and pay then or choose not to keep and return the package. Every folder had a conference reminder slip. If you cannot make the time you signed up for just let me know. Thank you and God Bless!
