Bee-utiful Workers!

Greetings! Today was a great end to such a wonderful week in first grade. The students worked hard all week and came each day eager to learn new things. Today was no exception. I love seeing their enthusiasm for learning. 

We began our day with Religion. Today we talked about ways we participate at Mass. We said that we participate in three ways: by praying, singing, and listening. 

We wrapped up another week in Language Arts today. We used our oral vocabulary words in sentences. We then read words with the vowel sound oo and words with the suffixes -ful and -less. Next we wrote sentences using our sight words. After taking our weekly assessment, we reviewed using pronouns in sentences. 

In Math class today we practiced continuing number patterns. The students did a great job at recognizing the pattern and filling in the missing numbers. 

Then it was time for Science class. Today we talked about the words push and pull. The students then worked in groups to design a maze using classroom materials. After their maze was built, they had to blow a ping pong ball through it. They just loved this activity and were so creative in their designs. Here are the mazes: 




We ended the day with Art. Today we made bee-utiful bees. I just love how they turned out and can't wait to display them on Monday. Here they are: 



Enjoy your weekend!
