Thursday-Field trip Day! This is the first trip of the year. A rubric is in the homework folder to go over with your child before Thursday. Mr. Book and his wife are very sweet people and they appreciate how respectful Achieve has always been. This is their home and farm and they love sharing it with our kids. Kindergarten will also be joining us. This is Kindergarten's first field trip and it is up to us first graders and parents to set a great example for them. If you are able to drive even just your child we would appreciate the help. Still need a few permission slips turned in. If students don't have a permission slip they will need to sit in another classroom while we are gone.
Box tops- last day for box tops is the 25th!
Superpower of the week is the virtue of Respect- Respect is valuing yourself and others. Treating yourself and others with dignity. You get and give Respect. It is a cycle.
Zoo Phonics we are now studying blends. Last week was "bl" this week is "dr." See how many blends you can find while reading this week. Our words are: draft, drag, drift, drip, drop, drill, drum, draw, drawn.
In math We are finished with time. Students are able to tell time to the hour and 1/2 hour. Last week we started addition and subtraction up to 10. This means math facts and how fast they can recall them. After this we will start with facts up to 20.
Science- Last week we learned how to tell what direction, East or West, by finding the sun. Our sundial clock on the playground is in progress. We are hoping to finish it this week.
Daily 5-Working on sight words, writing stories, zoo phonics, reading strategies and a whole lot more.
Homework- Star reading, field trip rubric.
Have a great week,
