Greetings! Happy Tuesday! There was a lot of excitement and surprises in first grade today. We are anxiously awaiting our field trip tomorrow. But before our day of fun and learning outside the classroom, we had learning to do in the classroom.
In Religion class today we talked about how we grow closer to God when we pray. We took time to write a prayer to God that we can pray this week and all during the year.
In Language Arts class, we answered questions using our sight words. We also used our letter tiles to spell and read words the air, are, and ear. Then we learned how to blend and decode r-syllable words. After that we practiced using our sight words and vocabulary words in sentences. Next, we worked on our fluency and comprehension. We reread Share the Harvest and Give Thanks and then talked about the author's purpose for writing the story. We then read our decodable reader.
This afternoon was full of excitement and surprises. We went to the annual 8th Grade Jeopardy tournament. It was very hard for us not to shout out the answers for the Dr. Seuss questions. After that, we had a special Music class.
In case the students haven't told you, our field trip is tomorrow. They can wear shorts but no sleeveless shirts. They do need to wear sneakers. Also, please remember to pack a lunch. It will be a great day tomorrow!
