A WEEK IN THE LIFE OF YOUR FIRST GRADER:
***Shared Reading-We're reading the story "If You Give a Moose a Muffin" and finding contractions within the text.
***Word Work-We continue to work on our CVC spelling pattern word sort. These words are spelled with a consonant-vowel-consonant pattern and the vowel sound in CVC words is usually short (example-big).
***Writing-This week we are working on our end of quarter writing assessment. When I grade these pieces, I am checking for complete sentences in a paragraph that has a main idea with details. I am also checking their conventions of writing (capitals, ending marks, spacing etc...).
***Math-Yesterday we took a test over our last chapter that focused on skip counting, even and odd numbers, and number patterns. Today we are beginning a new math chapter that reviews addition strategies such as counting on, doubles and doubles plus one facts. We will also learn the strategy for adding 3 numbers.
***Social Studies-This week we are learning more about Abraham Lincoln and George Washington. We will also do a couple fun projects on Lincoln and Washington.
