Hello My Name Is...

Mrs. Sanders

  Happy new year and welcome back! I hope everyone is well rested and ready to continue learning.
 Ms. Dimpel has finished her student teaching with us. Her ideas and support will be missed.
   New in 2013! Please join me on edmodo. This is a web page much like facebook. However it is locked to just our classroom. Please look for room 16 first grade. The code to join is iu5mi0. This is another way to contact me and share information and ideas. Students are also welcome to share ideas here. Please know this is a place to share books you like, math problems, or stories you write.
   Remember we are still Peacebuilders at home and online. If someone posts forgetting this, their comments will be deleted. If it happens three times you will be removed from the group. Students will also meet with me to discuss proper behavior on the web.
    I hope that this will be s fun way for us to connect further and continue to share ideas, tips, and tools to advance the learning of all students.
        In the classroom we will continue to work towards our learning goals.
Students should be reading at a level F at this time and level G by March. Please practice reading fluency as well, this is how quickly your child can read. It should sound like normal talking, be easy to understand, and include expression. Try to read 60 words a minute.
      Math: try to solve problems quickly without using fingers or drawing dots. Can you solve 30 problems in a minute? We will begin to practice this skill in the classroom as well.
  Continue to practice writing stories with details and adjectives.
As always if you have questions please contact me on edmodo, by email, or at school.
