Happy Sunday!
Here is what we did at school this week:
-In Science, we used all our recyclable materials to build towers. The challenge was to build the tallest tower possible. We were not allowed to use tape or glue, and we couldn't hold the tower. We worked on our teamwork and cooperation skills as well.
-In math, we drew 2D and 3D shapes! Ask your child to name a few and possibly teach you how to draw these.
-In writing, we fixed a boring story! The story was: "One day I went to school. I came home. The End." The students learned that a story must have a beginning, middle, and end. They each wrote a story. Most of us were able to write MORE than 5 sentences! AMAZING! We are working on adding details and writing more sentences to make our stories interesting.
-In literacy, we worked on the EE and EA vowel pairs. We read a poem and hunted for all the EE and EA words.
Reminders:
I am looking for volunteers for our field trip on MAY 16. Please email me if you are able to join us for the whole day!
-Homework books, spelling tests, and mad minutes will come home on Tuesday
-Our Willy Wonka performance is on THURSDAY! I am looking forward to seeing everyone there! It will be a great show! PLEASE practice the songs over the weekend. Click HERE and scroll down until you see the Oompa Loomp songs labelled Grade 1.
-NO School on MONDAY
Here are some Easter JibJabs! Enjoy and have a great weekend!
