We had such a fun week in first grade.
This week we learned about 2 different types of sentences. Exclamatory sentences show emotion and end with an exclamation mark. Declarative sentences make a statement and end with a period. We also looked at non-fiction text features including pictures, captions and bold print. We wrote our opinions of Frankenpudding or of Frankenstein and wrote how to make it. Our class is doing an excellent job of writing their opinions.
This week we will be finishing up non-fiction text features.We will also learn about the other 2 types of sentences; Imperative (a command) and Interrogative (asks question). We will start our new unit -- Me on the Map. Please help your child learn their address and phone number.
Please remember to write your child's name on all their loose clothing items. We have an overflowing lost and found. If you are missing something please check the lost and found or send me an e-mail so I can be on the look out.
