A DAY IN THE LIFE OF YOUR FIRST GRADER:
- Shared Reading/Word Work: Miss Saulka has taken over these subjects this week, and today she read The Itsy Bitsy Spider and introduced the bossy r sound spelled /er/ like in the word spider. Our first graders were also introduced to List 18 spelling words (get, like, on, pretty, she). Don't forget to practice words on www.spellingcity.com. It's lots of fun! (:
- Math: Miss Saulka is also teaching math. However, as in all subject areas, we are team/parallel teaching many lessons together. Today your student learned how to use information in a bar graph to answer questions about the graph. Our math test on Thursday will be over different types of graphs we've learned (concrete, picture, and bar graphs). We have also learned how to make tally marks and use them to create a graph.
- Social Studies: We discussed and learned more about Martin Luther King, Jr. We watched a video about his life and are working on making a book about Dr. King.
Today was a very special day for Mr. Taylor. He was given the Peabody Energy Leaders in Education Award. It is quite an honor for an educator to receive this important recognition.
CONGRATULATIONS MR. TAYLOR!!!
We are very proud of you!
