A Rainy Monday!

Greetings on this dark, rainy Monday. I will admit that the weather affected us in first grade today. It took us longer than usual to wake up and get going today. It was a great day to stay in bed a little longer. However, once we got the juices following we were off and running. 

In Religion class we talked about Jesus' entry into Jerusalem. We talked about how the people waved Palm branches and shouted "Hosanna" as he rode into the city. 

We began Language Arts class by working in our literacy centers. Then we began a new week of learning. Due to the Christmas programs and difficult concepts this week, we will be stretching this week into next week. We learned two new oral vocabulary words (hero and tale). We then worked on making predictions as we read Interrupting Chicken. After that we learned how to blend and read words where the c says s and the g says j (also known as soft c and g words). After reading many words, we then completed a word sort where we sorted words based on their c sound. We ended the morning by reading a decodable reader. 

This afternoon in Language Arts we wrote the first two steps in decorating a Christmas tree. 

In Penmanship class this week we will be practicing J and j. 

In Spanish class today we learned that Spanish words for thank you (gracias), you're welcome (de nada) and good morning (buenos dias). 

In Math class today we worked with number patterns. We identified the missing numbers in a pattern. 

Have a dry night!
