Our First Week of School

We had such a busy first week of school. This week we focused on routines, the 4 Bes, working together,and bar graphs. 

The 4 Bes are be respectful, be responsible, be safe, and be helpful. Theses "bes" will be used in the classroom as well as all around Addison. Ask you child what they mean and what they look like in action at school.

We will work together in groups almost daily in first grade. Getting along with others, sharing ideas, and taking turns can be tough. But not if you remember what GROUPS stands for.

This week and next are math focus will be on bar graphs. The students are expected to collect data, display it using a bar graph, and tell about the data they collected. We graphed feelings, favorite colors, and birthdays. 


Upcoming Events:
Media Center on Monday
SLO  testing on Wednesday
Open House on Thursday 5:00 (no children please)

Happy First Day of First Grade!

We had an exciting and busy first day of school. The students were awesome. They were hard workers,organized, and great listeners. We sorted our supplies,shared our Me Bag, created a "What if" chart,and read a book called First Grade Stinks! 

The children have brought home a white binder. This is their G.A.T.O.R. book. They will bring it home daily as a form of communication between school and home.Inside the binder is their agenda which you will sign each day. The front pocket is labeled Take Home. This is where you will find any important papers. The Cobb County folder contains many forms for you to read and fill out. Please return them at your earliest convenience. The sooner the better! Papers may be placed back in the Take Home section to return to school. 

Looking forward to a great year!

Welcome to First Grade!

It was so nice to meet you today! I am super excited for school to start on Monday. Please remember to bring your all about me bag to school on Monday so we can share. 

In order to ensure that we have a safe classroom this year,I am recommending that we have no peanut products in our classroom.
