The Week of April 27, 2010
I hope that you all had a great April vacation! All of the children came back rested and ready to get started on their last quarter of first grade. Where does the time go? I am so happy with the progress that they are making. In addition to the academics it is a joy to see how well this class works together everyday. They are kind and helpful to one another. I sure have been blessed this school year!
This week's spelling words: hay, day, play, spray, way, pay and ***geography***
SUPERKIDS: This week we are starting unit 2. The skills that we will be working on are reviewing ai/ ay, words ending in -y, -ier, and -iest. We will be working on the following Memory Words: their, now, always, because, and been. We will also be working on following written and oral directions.
Math: This week we will be adding 10 to double digit numbers, counting change, ordering numbers from least to greatest and measuring line segments using inches.
Social Studies: Over the next two weeks we will continue our work with map skills. This week we will be learning about and using map keys. We will then move on to using globes as they are models that represent our Earth.
Science: We are continuing to share our daily weather reports. We have really enjoyed this! We will also be working on weather projects in the coming weeks. I will let you know about the details at the beginning of May.
Religion: We are starting a new chapter "Jesus Sends Us the Holy Spirit".
