Hi there my wonderful first-grade families! 🙂
Math: Homework is from and to be completed through their Into Math homework/practice book! It has been 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 been learning more and more about math. We have completed Module 8 and have started up Module 9. We will finish that up early next week hopefully! :))))))
****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 working through Unit 7, which 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! We have been talking about nouns and verbs, and building on that same knowledge! 🙂 We will begin Wilson Unit 8 next week! 🙂
Spelling: We will be having a spelling test the week Friday (3/6)! It’s the test we were supposed to have during the cold day. Some friends who were here took it and it seemed a lot harder so I would like to 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!
Religion: We have been hard at work learning about how we can be a follower of God and Jesus Christ. We have been working through our Religion books each day and discussing how God is present in our lives and how we can show his love in our lives.
**We are in charge of the Prayer Service of Washing of the Feet. Please ensure that if your child has a speaking part that they are practicing and getting more comfortable with their speaking parts. Every single child is included in this Prayer Service. Remainder it is on April 2nd in the Church at 9:30 Am.
Science: We have been discussing every single day during morning meeting, the weather! We have been learning about the Scientific Method and what can/could happen! We have also started talking about Living versus Non-Living things!
Reading: We have been noticing on how in stories–they do start with capital letters, finger spacing, and punctuation! We have been spending a lot more time working on writing to connect to what we have learned about during those said stories! This week, the favorite Story was How to Trap a Leprechaun.
We are also so still very grateful to continue to have Storytime with our volunteering librarian, Mrs. Flood, on Thursday’s as well! 🙂
We have been working EXTREMELY hard with our comprehension (remembering what is going on/happening throughout the story!) We have also been reading a book and then writing a story/a page about it!!! We also have started building on our prior knowledge of Main Idea and key details! **Remember to keep filling out those reading logs! 🙂 They are due each Monday unless we do not have school so in that case, they would be due on Tuesdays! Thank you!!!!!! 🙂
Once again, if you are interested in being a Mystery Guest Reader, please just let me know! 🙂
Star Student will continue on the week after! 🙂
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,
