Back to Normal

Greetings! Today was a normal day for us in first grade. We were not coming and going like yesterday. 

In Religion class we continued our discussion about the Blessed Trinity. We learned that the Sign of the Cross is a special prayer to the Blessed Trinity. Also, to help us remember the Three Persons in the Blessed Trinity, we made a triangle. I look forward to doing this project every year. Former students will come and tell me where theirs is; I love hearing it. Here is a sample: 


In Language Arts class, we learned three new oral vocabulary words. We then practiced blending and reading l blend words; we even used our letter tiles to help us spell words. We also learned about plural nouns. Next, we worked on our comprehension skills by drawing and writing about the key details in the story A Pig for Cliff. This afternoon we worked on our writing skills by writing a descriptive sentence and a sentence about a pet we would like. 

During Math class today we learned how to divide a solid in half. We used apples for this. After dividing each apple in half, each student was given a half. He/she then dug out the seeds in the apple. We will use these seeds next week in Math class. 

Tomorrow is a dress down day. Students may wear shorts, capris, or jeans. They cannot wear sandals, sleeveless shirts, or spaghetti strap shirts.
