"Busy Bees"

Happy Thursday, everyone! I hope everyone is having a great week! Today was an awesome day in first grade. 

To wrap up our study of the Christmas story, the students created their own Nativity scene pictures. They arranged pictures of Mary, Jesus, Joseph, shepherds, and the Kings on paper. They did a great job with this project. 

In Language Arts class today, we reviewed long u and long e words as well as words with inflected endings. We also practiced our fluency by rereading Honey Bees. After reading, the students wrote sentences telling what they learned about bees. We then created bees to correlate with our writing. Have a look at their work! 


During Math class today we solved a problem by looking for a pattern. 

Then, it was time for some Christmas activities. We read the book The Polar Express. We completed a worksheet where we sequenced the events in the story. Finally, we created our own Christmas bells that we can ring all throughout the year. 

We ended our day with a special Art project. Today the students created a Santa Claus. They will be bringing them home tomorrow. 


Just a reminder that tomorrow is our last day of school before Christmas vacation!
