It will be another busy week of learning in first grade! This week, we will begin an author study of Laura Ingalls Wilder. We will compare life of children during her time to our lives today. We will also discuss Black History Month, and learn about John Henry and other famous African-Americans. We will continue reading fairy tales, focusing on The Three Bears and Jack and the Beanstalk.
We will finish Unit 6 in Math. Unit 7 is about Geometry and Attributes.
Every day, we practice counting our Pennies for Patients. So far, we have collected almost $30.00! We are hoping to win the prize.
We have almost 100% participation in the Math-a-thon in our class! The collection envelopes are due on March 11. Good luck working on the math booklets!
