Homework...

New format...Homework will be coming out monthly for all of first grade.  This is suggested practice and I don't have to see it...OTHER than the connections on the puppy blog on Tuesdays.  If we have any special projects I will post those with a DUE DATE! As always, thank you so much for all that you do to support your SUPER PUP!


BOOSTERTHON:
I'm not sure I let everyone know our final pledge total!  2559.00 WOW!  We are doing great at getting those pledge dollars in...AND I have had a few extra pledges come in. You all and my SUPER PUPS are OUTSTANDING. As soon as collections have been made we will start having incentive parties! WOO HOO.

CURRICULUM:
We are finishing up our books and starting "manuals" (I love it, thanks Jack) for Ms. Moore's birthday! 
We read D.W.'s Lost Blankie and after we summarized it! Tomorrow we will make a game to help us sequence the story!
We started talking about 2D or (plane) shapes today! I love that my pups are able to use attributes to sort their shapes.  What smart cookies!
Seasons in the SUN here we come!  We will be describing what a tree looks like throughout the seasons.

Happy Holidays:
This week is going to fly by and we have so much to do! I do not anticipate blogging much. As soon as I leave here I need to start preparing for the 24 hour trip to ND.  I'm just a "little" bit excited to get there. Leaving as soon as all the pups are gone on Friday! I hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday. I will miss all my pups!
Don't forget...Field Trip on Monday when we return! 9:00.  If you want to come please join us!  We need helpers on the "jeep" course.  If you want to come you may come to school and follow the bus or you can just meet us there about 9:30. Please remember that we would prefer no siblings on field trips!
