Alleluia!

Good evening, everyone! First grade had quite a productive day. We began by reviewing the events of Holy Week which led into our discussion of Easter. We then read the Easter story and talked about how Jesus is risen among us. 

During Language Arts class we reviewed compound words and vowels ei, ue, and ui. We then read our story Peter's Chair which is about a boy who is not so sure he likes his new little sister. Many of the students could relate to this story which added to their enjoyment factor. 

In Math we continued to practice our adding 9 facts. 

As promised here is a picture of the stained glass crosses they made last week. I also added a photo of the giant cross bulletin board which is made out of puzzle pieces that the students decorated.
