1B Weekly News
September 9-13

The annual fish fry is Sunday at the Jackson County Fairgrounds (see the Weekly Warrior for more details). To offest costs, we are being asked to donate some items.  First grade has been asked to donate 2 liter bottles of soda. If you are able, please send them with your child to be dropped off at the school office.  Thank you in advance.

Grandparents Day is September 27. Information is in the Weekly Warrior.  It will be important for you to let me know if your child is leaving with his/her grandparent.  A form is in the folder for you to fill out and return with this information. Since the format has changed, we will start in chapel, which is where the grandparent will find us, starting at 12:30. Also, your child can leave at ANY time after chapel with his/her grandparents.  Please note that I will NOT be supervising your child.  He/She will be under the grandparents' care/supervision.

We will be going to Kelsay Farms on October 1. An information letter is included in the folder.

Please remember to practice memory for Wednesdays and Fridays!

September book reports are due by September 13.

The new book order is due Sept. 20.

Rion is our "Star of the Week." Her pictures will be posted on our board and she will have an opportunity to share some things about herself.

We will collect offerings on Mondays. Our offering for August/September will go to Haiti Good Shepherd Lutheran Church. There has been so much turmoil there and Pastor Bernard appreciates our prayers and support. Thank you for remembering them!

Our school has lots of Fund raising opportunities! The office sells Scrip, which are gift cards to retailers to use like cash.  You get the amount that you pay for, but the school gets a percentage back on the sale. BoxTops (you can enter your receipt online and earn money for the school) and Amazon Smile are also ways for ILS to earn money. Thanks for all the support!

I collect poptabs, which are taken to Riley Children's Hospital. They are converted to help families who stay at the Ronald McDonald House.

I hope to see you at the Fish Fry!

In His service,

Mrs. Bell

Reading

We are working to master the sounds the letters make.  You will see lots of stories and worksheets to help with that mastery. 

We continue to learn about consonants, vowels, and syllables.  We are identifying the beginning and ending sounds and rhyming words. We will begin to blend words. We will work to recognize synonyms and antonyms.

We are writing an alphabet book with words and pictures.

We have begun a unit on animals. We will write sentences about which animals we learn.

Remember to listen to and assist your child with the reading material coming home. 

Please make sure the reading books are returned each day.

  • Monday-Read "Bob at Bat" and "Bob at Bat"
  • Tuesday- Read "The Cab" 
  • Wednesday- Read "Sis the Cat" and "Ants"
  • Thursday-Read "Picnic" and "Sit"
  • Friday-Read "Nat's Nap" and "Nat's Cap"
Math

We are learning subtraction, including difference, parts, whole, and number sentences. When we work on word problems, I want the children to show their work by the problem by drawing circles to represent the problem. In addition to showing the work, I will ask the children to underline "what they know" and circle "what they need to find." 

Practicing math flashcards (addition/subtraction) proves to be very helpful to your child! You can make your own or purchase some.

HOMEWORK:  Math worksheets

Social Studies

We learned about calendars, routines, and rules for school. We learned about problem solving.

Science

We will learn about plants: their parts and their functions.

We studied roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits, and seeds.
