Happy Friday! Such a fun day at our Den Rally today! Our first grade team competed in the 2nd Annual Pinebrook Lip Sync Battle. Ask your kiddo about all the fun!
I will share information about the rescheduled Family Game Night if/when I receive it. I anticipate our Kindness Spirit Week will be extended too.
Meantime, next week will be an attempt to finish things we started this week, and find some return to normalcy with our routines. Our focus areas next week won't change because we got so little done this week!
Writer's Collection!
Please remember to send in your child's collection for our writing unit on Monday. This collection can be a set of five items or more. We will be using your child's collection to write reviews and opinions. Students can bring in a collection of anything that they have at home. Some ideas include: rocks, stamps, stuffed animals, beads, pencils, shells, etc. If you are having difficulty creating your child's collection, please let me know. :)
Focus Areas for the Coming Week:
- Reading-We will practice retelling and summarizing stories
- Writing- We will continue our letter writing unit and begin our opinion writing unit where we learn to write a review about a collection of items
- Math- We will continue our subtraction unit. We will learn that subtraction is the opposite of addition and we will learn strategies for solving subtraction facts quickly
- Social Studies- We will continue to learn about Presidents' Day. We will talk about the lives of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, and talk about their contributions to our country.
I hope you enjoy the weekend!
