A few notes:
HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope you all have a fortunate 2021!
Thank you for taking the time to read our class blog. This is the best way to get information about what is to come. Many questions can be answered here, I will often direct families here if they have questions. You support and time from home really makes such a difference! I appreciate YOU!
Just a reminder we will meet you at the purple button at your scheduled conference time. I look forward to reviewing report cards, work habits, and areas of improvement with you.
If you have not already done so, click the link below to sign up for a time that works best for you. Thank you. I can't wait to meet you at your child’s purple button and share all that I love about them!
Next week is an early release week, the students will be logged off at 1 PM for conferences.
Again, we are SO happy to have Mrs. Rodriguez this semester. You will see her more often as she is starting to take on lessons with the students. Please review her letter below, there is so much to know about her!
Little Bear and Owl at Home week… We are ready to jump into some small chapter books, WOOHOO! I have a copy I will be from to the class. In the past my students have loved to have their own copies to read from. This is not required but if your child would like a copy of their own please use the link to order. There are classic books that never get old. Amazon is a great resource as book are a little as $4.95. You may send them in with your child at any time prior to us reading them, they can safely stay in cubbies until it is time for them.

For the month of January we will be working on the Core Value of ORGANIZATION! It is the perfect time of year to think about how and where we place things to make the days as efficient as possible. I am looking for students to place things back where they belong, take their time doing things slowly and neatly, and to have work spaces that allow to focus on the task at hand.
A Look at Next Week:
ELA
We will continue with our snow stories. Mrs. Rodrigues will be covering various stories such as The Mitten and Snowflake Bentley while focusing on details that provide important information. I hope that we can make stronger connections with snow and how it is formed, living in the Valley of the Sun does not provide the real life connections that I’d hoped for!
MATH
Addition without regrouping. We are so excited to start a new unit, using our understanding of place value to add some pretty large numbers.
SCIENCE
We will continue with weather and our planet following parent teacher conference week.
SOCIAL STUDIES
We will start our maps unit following parent teacher conference week.
Before you go… get to know Mrs. Rodriguez!
Hello everyone! This is Mrs. Rodriguez! I just wanted to pop in here and say hello and let you know that I am so excited to be a part of room 6 for the Spring semester! I cannot wait to learn and grow with your first grader, and I cannot wait to meet all of you! Until then, here is a little bit about myself. Stay safe!
