Quarter 4 -- Week 2




Happy Monday!!!

It was great getting to visit with everyone at Parent-Teacher conferences. Thank you for taking the time our of your busy schedule to meet with me.  I can't believe this school year is almost over.  The first graders have made so much progress this year.   


Last week in first grade...

  • We wrote Haiku poems. We also choose our favorite poem and shared it with the class.
  • We started our narrative writing unit. We choose an small moment from our lives. First graders completed a circle map with all the details and drew a picture of that moment.
  • We review capitals by review MINTS (Months and days, I -- the pronoun, Names, Titles, Start of sentences. 
This week we will...
  • words with the vowel team ee (greed, speed, indeed).
  • continue typing our poems using google docs on the Chromebooks.
  • begin writing our personal narratives
  • Explore the patterns of the moon and sun.

Happy Monday,
It was so nice to see all of you at Parent-Teacher Conferences.  I cannot believe the change in these kids since the beginning of the year!  Mrs. Rowlett and I are very proud of their hard work and progress!

On Monday, the first graders will create Fraction Pizzas and take their assessment of fractions.  Later into the week we will go back to some objectives that we have taught in order to review and check for mastery.  Such as: adding 3 numbers up to 20, add and subtract within 20 and review shapes and their attributes.  Tell the difference between a 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional shape.
