Brrr! It has gotten cold outside! Students will need to bring boots and their snow pants. It is hard to carry all of those things. If needed students may leave their snow pants in the coat closet. Please be sure clothing is marked with your child's name.
This week in reading we are working on retellings, we have read the book The Biggeset Best Snowman Ever. Today we will retelling the story on a big snowman story map. We will introduce a five finger retelling using a retelling glove too.
In math this week, I'm teaching the students "Frames and Arrows". It is more practice with adding and subtracting using a rule and a diagram. Expect a homelink today. We will also introduce counting up on a calculator. I will introduce the dime and we will begin counting pennies, nickels and dimes all together.
In social studies we will begin making our time lines using the photos the students brought in to school.
In science we will sort solid objects and group them by their attributes. Later in the week, we will construct with the solids and learn the words:cylinder, tower, and engineer.
In writing, we have started to write our final copies if one piece of writing, we plan to complete them this week.
Thursday is our first grade feast! If you are bringing a dish to pass, please be sure to label your bowl and utensils so they can be returns to you. Pack a small lunch for your child that day if they aren't buying the hot lunch and bring a drink!
Have a great week!
Mrs. Scheck
