Dear Parents and Students,
Welcome to the first grade, a new school year, and to our website! Every Monday I will send home a homework packet for the week. Please check for it each Monday. This website is another place you may go to find out about our homework. You will also be able to practice our sight/vocabulary words for the week by clicking on "Flashcards". (The children really like using the flashcards for practice!) Just remember to still check for the homework packet as this may have some important papers which are not on this site. Thanks for using this as another way for us to communicate! Have a great year!
Mrs. Post
