Hello first grade families. We are only 5 weeks away from summer and this time
of the year is extremely busy. Be sure to pay close attention to dates and
events. Next week is the Redbirds field trip. Thanks so much for getting the
paper mache' balloons together last week. I know they are a lot of work. We'll
begin constructing our globes this week.
In reading this week
we'll share the story Tippy Toe Chick, Go! It's a story about a chick that
out smarts a dog. Our comprehension focus is problem/solution. In
spelling we'll practice the final consonant -le pattern like in the word
dribble. In grammar we'll explore different types of sentences;
commands, telling, questions and exclamations.
In math this week
we test on 2 digit addition and begin 2 digit subtraction. We'll begin with
mental math skills subtracting tens and skip counting by 10's backwards starting
at any number.
In unit study we will begin our continent study.
Students will be able to identify and locate the 7 continents on a world map
and globe. We will also explore landforms found on each continent.
