The End
to Another Busy Week!
In math
we have continued studying numbers! They are all around us! We have practiced
using a number line and a 100’s chart. We are beginning to practice and learn
strategies for remembering addition and subtraction facts.
Today we
introduced science into our first grade curriculum! We are investigating
properties of water and have observed some pretty cool things! Check out our
class Facebook page to see pictures! So much fun!
In
literacy we have been working in both large group and guided reading groups to
investigate characteristics of friends and family. We are learning how our
families and friends are connected to us! We have also begun our fall
assessments including FAST, which is replacing DIBELS that your child took 3
times last year. We are also beginning MAPS testing which I am excited to share
with you at parent-teacher conferences!!
Next week
is homecoming! I hope you have all gotten a chance to look through the purple
