First Grade Learning and FUN! :)

Hi there my wonderful families!,

Math: Homework has been coming from the Into Math homework/practice book! It will be shared on ClassDojo what the math homework is for that night each day!

The next day, I will be checking their work! Please ensure that your child is completing their work:) We have just finishing module 4 this week and have been cruising through Module 5! They will take their Module 6 test next week! 

Wilson: We have been hard at work with our Wilson program. We have been working hard on Unit 4, have completed the Unit 4 Test and have started Unit 5 this past week!!! 🙂

Spelling: There will be NO Spelling Test this upcoming week due to Winter/Christmas break. We will continue on after break! Thank you!!! 🙂 

Social Studies: We have been hard at work with Social Studies! The kids have been able to learn and talk about  different cultures, traditions, and beliefs that people do! Last week we discussed the different types of jobs and how those differ from volunteering. This week we talked about connections within pictures and their vocabulary meaning/terms!

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 because he invited them to join him! How the followers of Jesus did not know before they joined him that he was the Son of God! That Jesus showed all of his new followers how to pray and that connects to how we say the Lord’s prayer! We also have been talking about how/why we would want to be followers of Jesus Christ, and they why! 🙂 We have also been discussing how Christmas is Jesus’ birth and how it is truly just so important to remember that Christmas is not just about the presents.

Science: We have been discussing every single day during morning meeting, the weather! With the seasons changing, we talk about what it looks like and feels like outside! It has been a big discussion about the cold and the snow! 

Reading: We have been noticing on how in stories–they do start with capital letters, finger spacing, and punctuation! 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! 🙂 

**Star Student will continue on after break! 🙂

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. 🙂

A few IMPORTANT announcements:

Please have your child bring in a bag that is sturdy as it will hold their belongings over break while the classroom is being cleaned! Thank you so very much for your understanding! 

If your child is sick, late, or needs to leave early,…please ensure that you are sending me an email and contacting the school office! It helps us out A LOT!!!!!! Thank you!!! 🙂

Homework will be sent through ClassDojo. 

Christmas Showcase is on Thursday December 18th at 7 pm in the Church. All students and staff are required to attend!
