End of April!

Greetings! I hope everyone had a good week! It was one busy yet fun day to end our week in first grade. 

In Religion class today we learned that at Mass we celebrate the Eucharist. We also talked about how Jesus is with us in a special way when we are at Mass. 

In Language Arts, we used our oral vocabulary words in sentences, reviewed reading vowels au, aw and team syllable words, and used our sight words and vocabulary words in sentences. After all of that reviewing, we were ready to read. Today we read Meet Rosina, a nonfiction story about a deaf; we then worked on our comprehension skills as we completed pages in our close reading companion. Finally, we reviewed possessive pronouns by finding them in sentences. 

In Math class today we solved a problem using the strategies of acting it out and guess and check. We used dimes for the act it out part. 

Then it was time for Science. Today we talked about magnets and how they attract to or repel from an object. To help us understand this, pairs of students were given a magnet and asked to find three things the magnet attracted to and three things the magnet repelled from in the classroom. They had no problems with this. 

We ended our day with Art. Today we made birds in a nest. To do this we used tissue paper. They are so cute. 

Below are pictures from the week. One is from the Art lesson; the second is from our Earth Day celebration. Enjoy!
