Counting Down...

We have two weeks left? Crazy! A note will be coming home soon about 1st grade skills. If you are looking for ideas to keep your new first grader busy I have a few websites with great games.
My favorite site is www.kidscount1234.com Check out the Math Centers and Games section on the left. We have played some of the games but not all. Frequently these games are chosen over all of the toys in our room.
These websites have been recommended to me also:
www.softschools.com
wwww.starfall.com
www.funbrain.com
The class will bring home a few books. We have been writing in the blue Morning Message books every Tuesday since September! Check out our progress. They will also bring home a few other Starfall books. Please make use of these books. The class loves working in them. I might keep one the car to use as a distraction when waiting to eat or at a game.
Finally, our class pictures on Shutterfly can be ordered and picked up at Target, shipped to your home or printed at home. I can only guarantee they will be available until September. After then I will be posting my new class's pictures. If you want the pictures visit the class site and order before September arrives and the memories are deleted!
