I cannot apologize enough for having to leave first thing Friday morning. Not the plans I had in mind for starting out our weekend! But we are fever free and ready to start a new week.
I did get to see everyone dressed in character and was so impressed! My sweet life-saving first grade teachers took lots of pictures for me!
A BIG THANKS to Mrs. Leap, Mrs. Morrow and Mrs. Fallesen for taking time out of your day to come and read to the class. It is WAY TOO MUCH FUN to listen to someones besides your teacher read a story.
READING
This week we will talk about the letter "f" as in "frog." We will read and discuss non-fiction books about frogs and talk about their life cycle.
The word wall words for this week are: bring, green, one, fly, sing, two, get, three
LANGUAGE
We will continue talking and review rules 1-15 but will learn rule 16 this week ~ Homonyms are words that sound the same but mean something different.
Example: road and rode; by and buy; to and two; meet and meat
MATH
We started Ch. 13, Addition and Subtraction Facts to 12. The students should be a little more challenged with this chapter as addition and subtraction will be mixed. They will have to really pay attention to what the sign is asking them to do. A review sheet will come home the night before the test.
