First Grade was very busy this week!
We introduced the glued sounds 'am' and 'an'.
We worked on making mini trick word books where we design the word and then use it in a sentence.
We solved more sentence puzzles including ones with quotation marks!
In math we took our unit 2 assessment ( a copy went home yesterday) and we began unit 3 with visual patterns! We know to be a pattern it has to repeat! We are learning to create, continue and label patterns we can see or hear.
In writing we launched our new unit on Opinion writing! We used our collections to write which item would be the best 'blue ribbon winner' in the collection. We are learning to convince your reader you need to tell why it is the best in your opinion and use the word because. We had other first grade teachers from Loudon come and observe us during writer's workshop and they were impressed with how great we are at being independent!
Lastly we enjoyed our pajama day and enjoyed the book version of the Polar Express. If you are interested in coming to the PTO event tonight it starts at 5 and you do not have to be pre-registered, just come!
