Our class started reading rotations at the start of November and they have been really enjoying it. There are five stations: Read to Self/Buddy Read, Listening to Reading, Word Work, Read with Mrs. Ebadi, and Writing. The targeted skills align with our Benchmark Curriculum and if you have taken a peek inside of your child's homework folder, there is a summary of each unit and what skills your child will be working on.
In math, we continue to work on building math fact fluency and for Unit 3, we are working on relating subtraction and addition equations.
Last month, we chose our first reader of the month through our Reading is Cool program: Cynthia! Please make sure you help your child complete their monthly reading logs. November's log is due Friday, November 22nd.
Your child's science teacher, Mrs. Ruscher, will be available to conference with you if you would like to meet with her. This is completely voluntary and is left at your discretion if you want to meet with her to discuss your child's progress in science.

We have our first long break coming up and I want to express gratitude to our amazing Bobcat Boosters Community for funding two paid online programs, Raz Kids and Matific, for our class to have access. I am also grateful for how hard our group of first graders have worked to build a respectful, kind and engaging learning community in our classroom. I look forward to meeting everyone during parent-teacher conference next week!
