Tuesday Newsday
Ms. Parker’s Class

Donations
Thank you for all of the classroom donations. We are still in need of hand sanitizer and tissues as well as disinfecting wipes.
Also, we do still need your classroom snack donations. Thank you to the families that have brought in the great snacks so far this month. Remember, I do not assign a snack day for each children. It is expected that each family send in one snack each month. We need healthy snacks to feed 22 children.
Behavior Slips
The behavior slips that come home each week are a great communication tool for families to get a peek at the choices being made at school. The green, pink, purple, and orange colors represent fantastic choices. However, the yellow, red, and blue colors indicate that poor choice have been made and discussions need to take place regarding these choices. Slips will typically be sent home on Monday the following week. Slips that have colors indicating “pin downs “need to be signed and returned to school. Slips indicating “pin ups” simply need to be celebrated!

Homework
Just a reminder, the majority of homework assignments will be sent home on Monday and due back on Friday.
Reading for 15-20 minutes each day is also expected. Please keep track of the days that you read on the September calendar that was sent home.
Spelling lists will begin the first week of October.
The “retell spotteds” are a quick way to let me know that your child has come home and told the story that we are working on to their family highlighting characters, setting, and major events.
Sight words
The sight words that come home as hand writing practice will be circled or starred. The words that are circled your child needs to practice reading. The ones that are starred are just a quick refresher. Please practice sight words on a regular basis. 1st grade SW lists will be sent home this week.
Have a fantastic week!!!
