What busy days we have been having this month! Our class is working very hard. We finishing the first half of the Superkids first grade program. It is so exciting to see how much all of the children have grown thus far.
This week's spelling words: eat, coat, week, rain, read, clean **BONUS*** shamrock
SUPERKIDS- As we wrap up the first half of the program we are working on reading and spelling words with long vowel sounds. The children are learning to add -ed and - ing endings to words with long vowel sounds. We are also working on contractions, compound words, and nouns with "er" endings such as skater and painter.
Math- In math we are reviewing counting and identifying coins, adding doubles plus one more, and patterns.
Science- In class we have been learning about types of clouds and the water cycle. As we wrap this part of our water unit we will be moving on to floating and sinking.
Social Studies- We are going to be working on map skills and types of maps. The children really enjoy using the class maps and the Nystrom first grade atlases.
Religion- Our class continues to count the days of Lent. We have been enjoying bible stories with seasonal themes. Many of the bible stories have helped to reinforce our learning about bullying. The first grade is focusing on kindness and including others.
Looking Ahead: Arts Night is Friday evening, 3/19
Walk A Thon- March 24th
School Wide Retreat Day- Holy Thursday
