Tuesday, April 12th, 2016

Today, Grade 1 did the following:

Math: Had a subtraction competition to reinforce subtraction skills, congrats to Luca for placing 1st! We also checked homework and began a small chapter review which we will complete tomorrow to get ready for Chapter 12 Test on Thursday.

Phonics: Introduction to Consonant Digraphs (2 letters that make a new sound, like sh and ch) and compared it to consonant blends. Reviewed when we use y as the long i sound and when we use it as the long e sound. We will be having a phonics assessment next week on Wednesday April 20th. 

Social Studies: Had a wonderful time hearing the class do their Family Tree presentations, we did not have enough time to complete all of them, but will resume tomorrow.
