Hello All
I hope your children are adjusting well to first grade. I know it is a big change from kindergarten. We have been having lots fun and learning tons already!
Friendly Reminders:
-please initial your child's behavior chart every night/look over homework
-P.E. class is every Wednesday: sneakers are needed
Reading:
We have been practicing a lot of routines as well as independent work procedures. Right now, we are immersed in our shared reading lessons. These lessons encourage whole group discussions as well as giving students exposure to the common core standards. As we practice what to do at our literacy centers I am hoping to start guided reading soon. Students will spend time reading for comprehension and fluency in small groups during this guided reading time.
Math:
Unit 1-How Many of Each-Investigations
Students are reviewing counting as well as making different combinations of numbers.
