The Month of the Rosary

Welcome back everyone! I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend. The students really seemed to enjoy their three day break. 

Today in Religion class we learned how to pray the rosary. We first talked about why we pray the rosary and colored a sheet that showed what prayers to say when. Then each student was given a rosary and we prayed the first decade of the Joyful Mysteries. We will continue to pray a decade a day until the end of October at which point the students will bring their rosaries home. 

In Language Arts class today we learned how to blend and decode words with the inflected ending -ing. We also practiced using these words in sentences. In addition, we practiced our sight words and talked about the importance of correct word order in sentences. 

In Math class today, we practiced drawing and writing number addition sentences. 

On a special note, we are preparing for our author visit this week. Matt Novak will be joining first grade on Wednesday. To prepare, we read his book Newt and talked about things friends do together.
