Week 24 March 5-8

Dear First Grade Families.

This week we will continue to work on our slideshow projects.  We are hoping to finish them this week and be ready to present them to you next week. We will send an email and post on the blog when the final date is for these presentations.

BOX TOPS
A wonderful parent has volunteered to do our box tops again.  Your child brought home a box tops sheet on Thursday be sure to save those box tops. If our class make $100 in box tops we will get a treat. 

Last Week 
  • We took our MAPS test.  All the first graders made great growth on this test.
  • We worked hard on our slideshow presentations.
  • We learned all about mammals, reptiles, fish, birds, insects and amphibians.
  • We review parts of speech and learned about prepositions. 
  • We compared Abraham Lincoln and George Washington and wrote about who we thought was the best president out of the two. 
This week 
  • We will finish up our projects.
  • we will continue to learn about the different animal groups. 
  • We begin our poetry unit. 
  • We will also be taking some end on the trimester assessments.
Spelling will resume this week.

Happy Monday,

This week we will continue to work on telling time to the hour and half hour using analog clocks.  We focused on this concept at the end of the week last week however, still need much more practice telling time.

The first graders will also be using a 100 chart to find 10 more, 10 less and 1 more, 1 less than a given number between 1 - 100.  Remember that your child has a 100 chart in their binder along with a number line as a resource to use for their homework.
