FIRST GRADE NEWS

 

 

THIS WEEK WE WILL BE FINISHING UP "A BIG FISH FOR MAX" AND ALL OF THE SKILLS THAT GO ALONG WITH THE STORY.  WE WILL TEST ON WEDNESDAY.  IN MATH WE WILL CONTINUE TO USE TEN-FRAMES TO ADD AND TO SUBTRACT. 

 

WE WILL NOT BE LEARNING A NEW SPELLING LIST THIS WEEK OR NEXT WEEK! THIS WILL GIVE US AN OPPORTUNITY TO READ THANKSGIVING STORIES, WRITE ABOUT THANKSGIVING TOPICS AND MAKE THANKSGIVING PROJECTS. SO ENJOY THE TWO WEEKS OFF FROM STUDYING SPELLING(ANOTHER THING FOR WHICH WE CAN BE THANKFUL!).  PERHAPS WE CAN EVEN FIND TIME TO DO A SCIENCE EXPERIMENT!

 

THE CHILDREN HAVE BEEN VOLUNTEERING TO READ PICTURE BOOKS TO THEIR CLASSMATES.  THEY REALLY ENJOY SHARING WITH THEIR CLASSMATES AND SITTING IN THE TEACHER'S READING CHAIR.  IF YOUR CHILD WANTS TO READ TO THE CLASS, THEY CAN ASK TO BE "PUT ON THE CALENDAR."  THEN S/HE NEEDS TO PRACTICE READING THEIR STORY ALOUD.
