What are we learning?
Word Work
Our new 1st grade word wall words are: year, last, ran. We are reviewing these kindergarten words: put, here, into. This is week 23 on Spelling City. We are also studying 3 letter consonant blends (such as scr, spl, str).
Writing
We are continuing our work with personal writing emphasizing a lesson learned. This week we will publish our pieces.
Reading
We are starting The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. While reading this classic, we will work on creating mental images. Did you know that creating mental images is a thinking strategy that good readers use to help them deepen their understanding of the text?
Social Studies
Mrs. Hammons will continue her guidance series in our classroom and teach us about stranger safety.
Math
We will continue our study of numbers. We are working with number formation, number recognition, counting forward and backward, etc.
