Field Day May 13th

1st grade Field Day is Wednesday, May 13th. Please send a water bottle with your child. Providing the weather is good, we will be outside until noon. You may want to also apply sunscreen in the morning before school. The sun can get really hot! Please explain to your child that classroom rules DO apply outside on Field Day. In order for us all to have fun, everyone needs to follow the rules.

Sight Word Practice

Here are the 4th nine weeks sight words your child needs to learn. It is set up like a powerpoint. Remember, in order to get a "3" on the next grade sheet, your child needs to know all of them.
