Parade of Saints!

Today was quite an exciting day in first grade. But before we had our All Saints' Day prayer service, we had some learning to do. 

In Religion class today, we talked about the seasons in the church year. We learned a little bit about each one and talked about the colors for each season. 

Our Language Arts learning centered around Halloween. Yesterday we wrote about how to fly a magic broom. Today we added our writing to a witch craft. Then we read Creepy Carrots. After reading the story, we talked about how we would have solved the problem of the creepy carrots. We drew and wrote how we would solve this problem. We added a creepy carrot to our writing. 

In Math class today, we graphed pattern blocks. Each student took a handful of block, sorted them, and then graphed them. We then answered questions about our graphs. 

Finally it was time for our All Saints' prayer service. The students were so excited to dress as their patron saint and walked so proudly in church. They all looked so amazing. Thank you to everyone who helped make this day special for the students. 

Tomorrow is our Halloween parade/party. Please remember to send in your child's costume in a marked bag. Also, tomorrow is a jean day. It will be another exciting day.
