We have been learning so many exciting things in first grade so far!

*In reading we have been building stamina to see how long we can read for. We have accomplished 20 minutes :)

*In writing we are working together to write about small moments in our life. We are using pictures and words to tell our wonderful stories!

*In math we have been working a lot on place value and what a ten and a one is. We are still practicing counting to 120 also!

*In science and social studies we have learned so many things already. We have studied weather, seasons, and precipitation. We will be starting our Benjamin Franklin study soon!!

August

We Just a little glimpse at what we were up to in August. 

We enjoyed Popsicles the 1st week of school! 

We earned our first Fun Friday!! So we celebrated with a dance party! 

We also worked on our Reading skills. 

Performing Arts

Mr. Wehr, our Music teacher here at Sedalia Park, would like everyone to know why it is so important that you sign your child's permission slip for the Performing Arts. He writes

Why should you sign the permission slip and donate to the performing arts program? 

• To provide opportunities for Cobb's children K- 8th grades to experience uniquely rewarding performing arts that might otherwise be unavailable to them.
• To spark curiosity, broaden awareness of the Arts, stimulate minds and emotions, foster creativity and inspire a lifelong interest and love of the arts with far-reaching effect.

To encourage excellence in the arts by providing high-quality professional performances and opportunities for cultural enrichment through the performing arts. Sedalia Park’s 5^th grade will see the Atlanta Symphony Dec. 9^th and the 2^nd grade will see the Ballet Sleeping Beauty. Last year we were able to bring special performances to Sedalia Park for our 3^rd grade and 4^th grade. We also had our Kindergarten and 1^st grade enjoy a special performance at the High Museum in Atlanta.

Please sign and consider donating to the Performing Arts Program. This really does help our students! 

Thanks DWEHR

First Week of School

We've had a great first week getting to know each other and learning school and classroom expectations and procedures. 

 

Today was a wonderful first day back to school! Your children were so sweet and funny. This year is going to a great year and I hope that I am able to learn as much from them as they will learn from me.

If you are interested in learning more about 1st grade and what we will be doing this year. Please come to Open House on Thursday, August 18 at 6:00.

I hope to see many of you there.

Summer!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer!  Remember reading can take you on so many different adventures!
