Newsletters By Virginia
|
|
I send home monthly first grade newsletters advising families of things we have been working and also preview what's ahead.I also send home weekly class "newspapers". I formatted a simple one-sheet newspaper that contains | the week's news, including Student of the Week, homework assignments, and parent reminders. This paper is authored by two first graders each week. (I make sure everyone has a turn to be a "reporter".) At the end of each day the reporters dictate a sentence containing news for the day. I transcribe it onto a large flipchart. Every Friday I copy the week's news and type it onto the | | newspaper format I saved on my computer.I always save an extra copy to be placed in a special binder in our classroom....the children love to reread these. I have received much positive feedback on these newspapers. Also, I copy the reporters' pictures at the top of each issue to really give it that "professional" look! I hope this is of help to you.
