Baking in First Grade

Happy Monday, everyone! I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend! We had a terrific day in first grade. We read an adorable story called Ruby in Her Own Time in Language Arts today. It is about this duck who does things on her own time. I hope you enjoy the story tonight. 

Also, we did some baking in Language Arts class today. We talked about synonyms and gave examples of synonyms. We took that knowledge to make 'cinnamon rolls'. On each roll we wrote a word and then wrote synonyms around it. The students cut out the rolls and glued them onto aluminum foil to make a tray of 'synonym rolls'. Here is a sample of a finished project.
