The Start of Holy Week

Today was a great day in first grade. I think everyone was well-rested and ready to learn new things. We began our study of Holy Week in Religion class this morning. We listened to the story of Jesus riding into Jerusalem as the people waved palm branches and shouted Hosanna! We then made mosaic palm branches to help us remember Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem. 

During Language Arts class, we discovered how to blend and read compound words. We practiced this skill by reading our decodable reader. We also talked about characters, setting, and plot. 

Finally, in Math class we learned about a dozen and a half dozen. 

As you can see it was a busy day in first grade.
