Grade 1 Class
Welcome to Grade One! :)
Just a friendly reminder - we are always looking for volunteers to listen to children read in kindergarten/grade one!
You can contact Ms. Wellington:
- in the grade one classroom before or after school
- by telephone 250-847-9414 before or after school
- e-mail swellington@stjosephsschool.ca
Welcome to a new school year! I look forward to seeing you all on "Meet the Teacher" night!
Please encourage your child to keep reading and recording in their reading logs. Please use the time when your child is filling in their reading logs to make sure they are printing neatly, their letters are the appropriate size, and capitals are not being used inappropriately. If your child is reading blue books, you may find the books are too long to read in one sitting. Every time your child reads for about fifteen minutes they can stop and when they fill in their reading log, under opinion they can print "I read from page 1 - 11". Then the next day they can continue on reading for another fifteen minutes. This will allow them to still achieve ten pages in their reading logs at the same rate as before and collect their treats.
Thank you for all your support,
S. Wellington :)
