A Week Closer to Christmas!

Greetings! I hope everyone had a fantastic week. The excitement of Christmas is building. The students are getting very excited; I do love it! 

We began our day with Religion class. Today we talked about Jesus being the Good Shepherd. We learned that just like a shepherd cares for his flock, Jesus cares for us. 

We wrapped up another week of learning in first grade. Today we used our oral vocabulary words in sentences. We also read long i words and plural words. We then wrote sentences using our sight words. After that we took our weekly assessment and practiced using present tense verbs in sentences. 

In Math class today we practiced comparing numbers. The students did a fantastic job identifying the greater and least number in a set as well as telling how much greater/fewer a number is. 

Our focus today switched in Science. We will now begin studying matter. Today we learned that we can group objects by like characteristics. For our experiment, we grouped objects on whether or not they can float. The students loved this. 

Finally it was time for Art. Today we made Santa Claus using cotton balls and messy glue. The students were very creative in their artwork! I'll post pictures on Monday once all of the glue has dried! 

Here are the pictures of Jingle's happenings this week:




Have a wonderful weekend!
