 Dear First Grade Family.

This week we will begin to read in a new Basal reader.  All students mastered the words on the yellow bookmark from the previous book!  Great job!!  Please continue to read daily and initial the reading calendar.   We will begin our unit on Native Americans and Pligrims.  Please help your child with math facts.

I will be sending home papers for the month of October.  Please look over these, sign, and return them.

 Thanks,

E. Stephens
