O Christmas Tree

Greetings! I hope everyone is having a great weekend. I am sure the students are loving the snow. 

Friday was a fantastic day in first grade! 

In Religion class, we learned about the Glory Be and practiced praying the prayer. During Language Arts class we wrapped up our story by reviewing long u, long e, inflected endings, and our sight words. We also took a test on the story. 

We used pattern blocks in Math class to cover a design and filled in a chart showing how many of each shape we used. In Science class we talked about how to sort objects. We discussed we can sort them by size, color, weight, or if they float. We then took objects and sorted them by whether they floated or not. 

Finally, we ended our day with Art class. This week we made Christmas carolers. I'll post pictures of them next week once they are displayed in the hall. 

We even had time for a few Christmas activities today. The students helped me decorate our classroom Christmas tree. We then wrote the steps in how to decorate a tree. The students then made their own Christmas trees and added some white paint for snow. Here are pictures of the Christmas trees the students made and then of our classroom tree. Enjoy!
