Greetings! It is hard to believe that another month has come and gone. Time is flying by in first grade this year.
We began our day with our final rehearsal for our play on Monday. The performance just melts my heart. I can't wait for everyone to see it on Monday! Don't forget your cameras!
After practice, we started our learning day with Religion. Today we made an Advent week. I sent home four flames with the students. Each week during the season, glue a flame onto the wreath as we prepare to celebrate Jesus' birth.
Language Arts class was full of learning today. We reviewed the oral vocabulary words we learned on Tuesday and learned three new words today: calendar, occasion, and weekend. We then practiced making predictions as we read a nonfiction piece about time. Next, we practiced reading long a words; today we used our letter tiles to spell and read words.
This afternoon we learned about contractions for not. We practiced spelling and reading them. After that we reviewed our sight words. Then our focused switched to reading. We reread Nate the Snake is Late and wrote about what happened in the beginning, middle, and end of the story. We finished our day by reading our decodable reader and sequencing the events in the story.
It has seem like forever since we have had Gym class. Today we finally returned to the gym. We used the parachute today. The students loved running under it and shaking it. Smiles were abound.
In Math class today we reviewed the concepts related to place value and numbers to 20. We will be taking a test on these concepts tomorrow.
Just a reminder that we have Library tomorrow! Enjoy your night!
