Announcements for February 26th, 2021

We would like to recognize the following scholars this month for showing the virtue of citizenship.

1A Sienna Brown

1C Jacob Black

1D Micah Rodriguez

Literature

We have completed the novel, Sam the Minuteman. The students LOVED it! They should be able to tell you all about it!

March 8th every student will need a copy of My Father's Dragon. If you do not have a copy of the book, you may purchase a copy for your scholar here!

Poetry

March 1st we will be starting a new poem Wynken, Blynken and Nod by Eugene Field. We will recite the poem the week of March 29th.

Science

We are finishing our section on animal/plant parts and how humans mimic those parts in the tools we create. We will be taking a section test on Wednesday, March 17th, so look out for a student study guide in your scholar's homework folder. 

We will be diving into senses after this section! This will be fun for your scholars, I can sense it! 

History

Next week we will be reviewing Early Civilizations.

We then begin a new unit when we return from Spring Break.

Math

Our first-grade math scholars will be reviewing Unit 13 “Numbers to 40.” We will be reviewing counting on and back from 40, comparing and ordering numbers to 40, making 10, more than, less than, tens and ones, adding and subtracting one and two-digit numbers with and without renaming. They will take a test at the end of the week. Once we come back to school from Spring Break we will begin studying Unit 14 which teaches the concept of multiplication by recognizing equal groups and the number of equal groups to solve problems such as: “3 groups of five make 15 altogether.” Please continue to support your scholar memorizing their math facts. Thank you.

We hope that you had fun on your unexpected snow days! Thank you to the parents of Grey Egbert for sending us this great photo!
