Hello! I hope everyone had a great weekend. I have updated the news below from last week. Please let me know if you have questions on anything happening in 1st grade!

Homework- This is the last week of math, reading, and souvenir bits . Technology homework will go through the last full week of school.
We have 1 more week of our official spelling program. After we finish the program we will be doing a review of the required 1st grade words and then doing a final test in June. A copy of the required words will be sent home soon, but many are basic sight words that the children have known how to spell all year.
The farm field trip is on May 26th. Please look for the reminder note coming home today.
We will be having a fun activity with Arts and Scraps in June (DATE CHANGE- due to district teacher training- will update soon!). More info will be sent home later this week. Arts and Scraps is a non-profit located in Detroit. It will be perfect for all our students who love to create! They will be coming to Eisenhower to complete a fun lesson/project with us.
We have 3 students (so far) who have qualified for our 1st grade Reflex pizza lunch on June 12th. The students must hit 100% fluency on Reflex by June 5th to attend the pizza party. We are very proud of all the students working so hard on their fact fluency!
High Touch High Tech will again be visiting our grade for another science program. There was a mix up with the original program we did with them a few months ago and they are doing this additional program free of charge!
Information was e-mailed earlier about our 1st grade picnic in June. Save the date for June 9th. We will definitely need parents to help make our picnic successful! A paper note will come home tomorrow.
