Hi parents!
Today in Grade 1 we....

Language Arts: We are still practicing and trying to perfect the art of writing a paragraph! We wrote descriptive paragraphs about our best friends and drew pictures to share with the class. These will be corrected and sent home for them to rewrite with corrections. 

Math: Reviewed what fractions meant and homework. Tomorrow we do what are probabilities and we will have a math assessment for Chapter 9 on Tuesday February 16 when we return from Chinese New Year break. 

Science: What are weather patterns and what is the 4 seasons cycle? Interactive learning from our online resources!

Homework: 
Science: Complete Word Search and read "June Bacon-Bercey" on page 271
Language Arts: Rewrite corrected paragraph

Important information:
Friday's Chinese New Year Show: Please provide your child with a white long sleeve shirt so they can wear  under their dance costume.

Happy Birthday Jonathan! We had fun eating pizza and watching Jonathan's favorite show!











Yesterday's field trip was a great success and so much fun! The kids had a wonderful time learning about drums, their history and why its so important to Chinese culture. We got to see a special performance in the remodeled sugar refinery and tour its antique looking installations. We had lunch while listening to some people rehearse in the room next door, and got to see some really old and different drums from Chinese history. Hope you enjoy the pictures!
