Tuesday Week 2

Tuesday Recap:
Today the first graders attended the first monthly mass of this school year. They behaved wonderfully :) 

Lesson Recaps:

Math: "greater than" less than" and "number lines"

Library: They returned last weeks books and borrowed new ones for this week. I encourage you to read these books with your kids at home and have them talk about why they picked that particular book.  

Social Studies: Continued speaking about school, rules, working in groups and what the jobs are for each person in a school. We emphasized the importance of respecting each other and helping one another. We started taking notes, please make sure your child has brought their six notebooks for the school year.

Science: Began introduction to Inquiry Skills (asking questions and finding answers) We talked about the first two: A. Predict and Measure (Make a guess and find out!) B. Classify and Communicate (Put in groups and write it down!)

Language Arts: 

Homework: Math MPB 1.6/Students are to read their list of rules we made together for the playground to their parents. 

Announcements:

I will be sending the students homework book (Assignment Book) along with any important documents or books needed for homework inside a new Homework folder, please check it daily in order to keep up with homework and important notices. 

This is the list of electives for 1st grade students, if your child is not here it is because they have not yet turned in the elective preference sheet, please put it in their homework folders, or send me a message with their preferences.
