Hi there my wonderful families! 🙂
Math: Homework is from and to be completed through their Into Math homework/practice book! It will be shared on ClassDojo what the math homework is for that night each day! Our morning work has been working through our Simple Solutions workbooks. We have been working hard throughout our module workbooks, and have started learning more about shapes and money as well! 🙂
The next day, I will be checking their work! Please ensure that your child is completing their work:) We have been flying through module 6 this week! Please ensure your child is doing their homework each day as it has been more practice for what we have been working on, and it has been helping them with their OWN learning!
Wilson: We have been hard at work with our Wilson program. We have been started Unit 6, this is a longer unit! We have been learning about suffixes, especially with the -s. We have been building on that knowledge and learning about our base words and then how we can make them plural!
Spelling: We will have a spelling test next Friday– 1/23. The words are a bit tougher so I would rather give them more time to prepare! Thank you for understanding!!! 🙂
The words/sentences are:
Stuff, Press, Pinch, Brags, and Vest
Sentences:
- Could Jill munch on her plum?
- Where did the dog stuff the clams?
Social Studies: This week, we focused more on talking about science. The students have been able to show their scientific knowledge while speaking, hoping it will build more and more especially at home! Next week, we will go into a deeper dive with learning more and more about maps, and then speaking more on the events of history! 🙂 We did discuss Martin Luther King Jr. Day and the impact he had on our history!
Religion: In religion, we have been hard at work talking about God’s love and how important it is! We have been discussing with each other how Jesus had many followers, especially the Apostles! We have been talking about how we can praise Jesus and God in our own daily lives. We then have also completed our Unit 7 and will start on Unit 8 next week!
Science: We have been discussing every single day during morning meeting, the weather! We have discussed about heating and cooling and how we can do that with chemical/physical changes. We have then been able to talk about changes, traits, and so much more! The students have been able to share and show their scientific knowledge when in discussions–please let them share what they have learned about at home!
Reading: We have been noticing on how in stories–they do start with capital letters, finger spacing, and punctuation! We have also spent a lot more time working on writing as well to connect to what we have been learning about stories! We are also still very grateful to have Storytime with our volunteering librarian (Mrs. Flood) on Thursday’s as well! We have been working hard with our comprehension (remembering what is going on/happening throughout the story!)
Once again, if you are interested in being a Mystery Guest Reader, please just let me know! 🙂
And as always, I am so grateful to have your child in my 1st grade classroom with me! 🙂
Thank you so very much for all you do,
Miss M. 🙂
