Dear Parents,
I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend.
During the month of September the students will
be participating in several activities to commemorate the Independence
Day of Honduras. We will begin the celebrations by having an
assembly on the first day of September.
If you have any Honduran souvenirs, maps, coins etc. please send
them in with your child so we can display them in our classroom.
I want to give a BIG thankyou to all of you who
kindly contribute to buy us a refrigerator for our class. This will help to
keep your child’s snack and lunch cool when they bring something that needs to
be refrigerated. Please inform your child whenever he/she has something to be
kept in the refrigerator. It is a good way to teach them to be responsible. I would
kindly request to please avoid any type of glass containers since they can
easily break and it is dangerous for your little one to carry them around by
themselves.
This week, your child will inquire into the following:
Students will be
reviewing all the word wall words we have studied up to this point through
various activities and chants.

This week we will be reading The Giving Tree.
Your child will be using illustrations and details in a text to describe its
key ideas.
We will continue working with Opinion Writing. Your
child will be writing an opinion piece in which they introduce the topic they
are writing about, supply a reason for the opinion and provide some sense of
closure.
This week your child will be learning how to solve
vertical and horizontal addition problems and solving problems by writing
number sentences.
We will be learning
about Honduras’ national heroes and symbols.
There are IXL skills for Math and for Language
Arts. It is a wonderful way to get some extra practice at home. This week I
would love for your child to do:
First
grade language arts
Consonants and vowels
A.1 Sort consonants and vowels
A.2 Find the vowels in a
word
