Watermelon Fun!

Greetings! Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone enjoyed the sunshine today. The students had a ton of fun in first grade today. 

In Religion class, we wrapped up our chapter on Pentecost. We reviewed what happened on Pentecost and how the Holy Spirit helps the church today. 

In Language Arts, we worked in our small reading groups one last time. We then began our first grade memory journal. We wrote about ourselves, our teacher, and things we learned. After that, we wrote about what we plan to do this summer and added it to a craft. We promise that we won't get crabby! 

In Math class, we practiced counting quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies. We are slowly getting used to counting money. 

We ended our day with some watermelon fun. We talked about the life cycle of a watermelon and its different parts. We sorted watermelon-themed words based on whether they are a noun, verb, or adjective. Finally, we sampled different melons (watermelon, cantaloupe, and honey dew melon) and voted for our favorite. Here a pictures from the day: 

Don't forget your game for tomorrow. Have a good night!
