What a wonderful first week of school! I have had a great time getting to know your children and many of you. It was nice seeing some of you at our curriculum night. Thank you again for being so flexible with the changes due to the weather. I look forward to a fantastic year.
Math:
We have already started unit 1 in math. We are reviewing subtraction, number grids, finding numbers around us, and place value. Next week we will be working on telling time, graphing, and name collection boxes.
Language Arts:
We made “Me mobiles” for the hall that tell about how we are good friends. We also interviewed friends and discussed after several read alouds important qualities that we believe good friends possess. The children also wrote about a summer story that made them smile. If you have time to look, they are hanging in the hall outside of our classroom. We started notebooks, which we do every morning when we arrive. The children have many fun and interesting things to write about, I love reading their stories!
Computer Lab:
Due to our new bond passing, we have new computers! We start next week with a typing program.
Spelling:
We took unit 1 test today and overall the kids did a great job! Next week the kids will have different lists after they are pre-tested. Monday you should see a list come home and homework will be to write spelling sentences.
