While I enjoyed Christmas break very much, it really was great to get back into our routine and to see all my sweeties again! We've just begun our Flat Stanley unit, and we'll be sending our Flat Stanleys to friends all over the country. We're hoping they will all come back with some great stories to share. This will give us a great opportunity to learn all about maps, map keys, the compass rose, and where we are on the map. This unit is always a lot of fun!
Here's this week's first grade news:
- This month's Scholastic Book Clubs flyer is ready for you to explore with your child. Once you've decided which books to purchase, please return the form and payment to me by Wednesday, January 11, or give online ordering a try. It saves time, offers more book choices, and earns extra rewards for the classroom.
To start ordering online, follow these simple steps:
-Register at Scholastic Book Clubs' secure Web site (www.scholastic.com/bookclubs), and create your own User Name and Password.
Thanks!
-Enter the onetime Class Activation Code above to link you to our classroom.
