Week 2 begins!

Dear parents,

Welcome to week 2 of Grade 1! Here is a quick recap of our day:
Math: Using the terms "greater than" less than" and "equal to"
Reading: We  talked about what is a question and what 2 things it needs (a capital letter and a question mark) Reviewed the silent e in words and wrote sentences on finding something and how we felt about it. 
Social Studies: What are rules and why are they important? How to work in groups and be respectful in school. We worked on our first group project together during Art since the teacher was out sick today. 







Homework for today is Math: MPB 1.5 and Reading: JPB (Journeys Practice Book) page 7 

The school has began a new system called "Houses" where each student is placed in one of the four houses and that is their group during their school years at DISK. The houses are defined by colors and symbols and are led by different faculty members. House groups eat lunch together and gain and lose points for behavior, however first grade can continue to eat lunch together for the next quarter. Here is your child's name and their house name and color.
