Reading/Language Arts Try the online Macmillan site to enjoy activities related to this Unit's skills at Www.mcmillanmh.com/indiana/students. I have also attached a letter that explains how to log in and what access code you need to use to view leveled readers on line.
This week's basal story is Pelican Was Hungry. We will be working on the following skills: rereading; inference; main idea and details; was and were. Sight words for review are: saw, opened, soon, every, any, sparkled, floating.
Congratulations to Elly Cleland. She is our January Showcase Writer. She wrote an awesome letter to her grandfather who is a fire fighter. The entire class did a phenomenal job writing letters to everyday heroes such as military, police, and firemen. Many children wrote to a family member that was their hero because of being in the military, police, or firefighter. If your child did, could you please make sure the intended recipient gets the letter? If your child does not receive it one, they wrote a general letter and it will be delivered to members of the military (my nephew, Brandon, who is in Afghanistan); the local fire station and local police agencies.
We will be working hard on completing the typing for our ABC books. If your child has not completed an entry for any of the letters, their journal will be sent home to complete. We will then keep the journals at school so they are here for typing.
We also learned a new acronym for the writing process. Ask your child about PWREPS and color editing.
Next, we will work on individual acrostic name poems for our classbook.
Math We will continue working on Unit 5 in math and focusing on place value and fast recall of addition facts. Homelinks for Unit 5 have been sent home. Remember Homelinks will be assigned as we go through the unit. They do not need to be returned to school. If your child is experiencing difficulty in completing any of the Homelinks, please let me know.

Published Books Our class will be completing a classbook that you can purchase a copy of for about $18.00. Each student will complete an acrostic name poem about themselves and an illustration page. All poems will be compiled for a classbook. The classbook is not free. You will have to pay to receive a copy. However, it is money well spent for a keepsake of their first grade experience. In addition, each child will complete their own personal ABC book. This book will be bound complete with a hard cover. The first copy is free! YEAH! Free! You can, however, order additional copies. I have several copies from years past available for your review in our classroom.
Web Files Peformance - We will have a dress rehearsal for the first grade students on Wednesday, March 11. An evening performance is scheduled for Wednesday, March 11 at 6:00 p.m. Student who are cast members need to be here by 5:30 p.m.

I LOVE TO READ IDEAS????
February is the WSBT I Love to Read Challenge. The entire Northpoint family will be participating. There will be several activities and fun planned school-wide. The focus of February will be to read, read, read, and then read some more. In years past, I have kissed a pig, been slimed by disgusting concoctions, and had the class at my home for a movie for a reward for meeting our classroom goal. If anyone has any creative ideas for our classroom goal, I would welcome it.

Blue Fridays.
Very soon, you will see a great many people wearing blue every Friday. The reason? America ns who support our troops used to be called the 'silent majority'. We are no longer silent, and are voicing our love for God, country and home in record breaking numbers. We are not organized, boisterous or overbearing.
Many Americans, like you, me and all our friends, simply want to recognize that the vast majority of America supports our troops. Our idea of showing solidarity and support for our troops with dignity and respect starts this Friday -- and continues each and every Friday until the troops all come home, sending a deafening message that every red-blooded American who supports our men and women afar, will wear something blue. By word of mouth, press, TV -- let's make the United States on every Friday a sea of blue much like a homecoming football game in the bleachers. If every one of us who loves this country will share this with acquaintances, coworkers, friends, and family, it will not be long before the USA is covered in BLUE and it will let our troops know the once 'silent' majority is on their side more than ever, certainly more than the media lets on. The first thing a soldier says when asked 'What can we do to make things better for you?' is: 'We need
your support and your prayers.' Let's get the word out and lead with class and dignity, by example, and wear something blue every Friday.

Published Books
Very soon we will be beginning to work on our individual and class published books. You will have the opportunity to purchase our class book. Each student will have his/her own page that they have authored and illustrated compiled into a class book. The books are wonderful. Each class book costs about $18.00 (shipping and handling included). We will each be completing our own poem about ourselves and then illustrating it or providing snapshots, etc.
In addition, we will be completing individual books that will be “The ABC's of Me” books. Students will complete at least 3 sentences for each letter of the alphabet that describes something about himself or herself. For example: “R is for running. I love to run, run, run! I have completed 2 marathons which were 26.2 miles each. “ I do not want the children to put something down that begins with a letter that doesn't have anything to do with that student. For example.... “Z is for zipper. I like zippers.” I want it to be about them! It can be a person, place, or thing that is special for that child, defines his or her personality, or a special event that the child enjoys.
Each day, students will be assigned one letter in the alphabet. They will need to write 3 sentences about that trait, characteristic, or favorite. They will need to return their writing folder each day with your initials. When we have completed the alphabet, I will send their first drafts home for your to help review/revise/edit with your child before printing them on the special paper that the publisher requires. I will also send home their final manuscript when they are finished for you and your family to complete the illustrations. The illustrations can be digital pictures that are printed on the paper or rubber cemented down. Scrap booking type stickers and embellishments also work as long as they are flat, not 3-D. The covers will also be sent home to complete and design the cover page with title. Each student will receive their original individual book for FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah! However, if you want more than one, you will have to pay about $18.00 for each additional copy. If you aren't familiar with these books, let me know and I will send a sample copy from previous years home with your child for you to view and then return. They make awesome keepsakes and wonderful gifts for family members.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. Thanks so much for your help.
Sincerely,
Jodi McGann
