Greetings! It is hard to believe that this is our last week of first grade. Where has the year gone? It is going to be a busy and sad week.
In Religion class today we talked about ways we can love and serve others. We looked at pictures of people helping others and came up with ways we can help others this week.
In Language Arts class today we worked in our literacy centers one last time. We practiced our fluency and comprehension skills as well as our writing skills. We then wrote a persuasive paragraph on why we love recess.
Our focus then switched to Social Studies. Today we looked at different American heroes including Martin Luther King, Jr., Susan B. Anthony, Cesar Chavez, and Sacajawea. After talking about what made them heroes, the students drew a picture of someone who they think is a hero and wrote about why they are a hero.
From Social Studies we went to Science. Today we read The Tiny Seed and talked about the different plant parts and the needs of plants. We labeled a diagram of a flower and sorted parts from needs.
In Math class today we learned about fact families. We practiced writing several addition and subtraction fact families. As we did so, we learned four new subtraction facts!
We ended the day with a fun end of the year project. We created a keepsake poster with a class picture and everyone's signature.
Just a reminder that tomorrow is our Snuggle and Cuddle Reading day!
