Hi families!

We are officially SPROUTING again! Wellington is raising money for much needed additional equipment for our playground! We are looking to expand our play area and include basketball goals and MORE. We would love your help in achieving this goal. Every little bit counts!

Tomorrow is our first collection day - The class with the highest total will earn extra recess AND Popsicles on SPROUT day (November 1). Not to mention that the class with the highest total gets to also Put a PIE IN MY FACE!!! I can't wait to earn this reward for our sweet class, I know they would love to have this reward and they are so deserving. Let's raise the highest total in first grade families!!

Send in this portion of the SPROUT packet. (If you have lost it please still send in! I'll add your students total to our class total.)

I also need this permission slip back ASAP. This allows your student to participate in SPROUT day on November 1. Sprout day is a fun filled day of activities that offer students a chance to try out many activities to see if they would be interested!

It's fall conference time! I have a full day planned on November 5 (election day) as well as some other dates available. If these dates don't work please just email me and we'll make a plan for conference. I love getting to talk with you about your student and their progress so please take a moment to use this link below to find a time to meet! FALL CONFERENCE

Remind your student to return their PURPLE homework folder on Fridays so I can trade out books. Homework each nigh should be reading with your student, going over sight words (both reading and spelling words) and using their agenda book sentence to talk about something from their day.

I have loved having your special students and getting to know them more and more each week. We are into our guided reading groups firmly so I'm getting to read with students each day and help push our students to reach their goals. Thank you for all of your support through reading together at home and working on those sight words.

We will take weekly math facts quizzes to practice math facts. You may have seen those start coming home. You can use those as a practice. If students don't finish their facts, they will continue on that quiz (+0, +1, +2) until they finish it to continue the practice.

Have a fantastic week, here are some pictures for you to enjoy!

Working out today for our movement break!
