First grade just finished up studying about Joseph and we
are learning about Moses! We have already hid Galations 5:22-26 and Psalm 15 in
our hearts so far this year! We are practicing how to be good friends and to
support and encourage each other.
We have Grandparents’ Day and are so excited to spend the
day with our very special grandparents! We made them a special gift and a card
and learned Noah and the Zoo Cruise skit for them! We will end with a fun
addition bingo game.
We just finished Red Ribbon Week. We had a poster contest
and first grade won!!!! Our theme was Hands down to drugs..Hands up for Jesus!
We had their sweet hand prints in red paint with their pictures on their
handprint. It was really sweet! We want
to stay healthy so we can be our best for Jesus.
As we are approaching Thanksgiving and Christmas, we have a
lot to look forward to. We have the annual Thanksgiving Feast where we will
dress up as Indians and have a great meal together. Then we will get to
celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!
We are continuing to work on fluency, comprehension and
expression in reading. We are also working on special sounds and sight words.
We just finished a unit on money and are working on adding 3 numbers and
subtraction facts. In Social Studies, we are integrating a technology lesson to
enhance our Seasons Unit. In Science we are working on how solids, liquids and
gases change. We are also working on writing a topic sentence, 3 star sentences
and a conclusion to make a paragraph.
We are off to a great start in first grade and are having
lots of learning fun!!!
