NO SCHOOL and FRIDAY NEWS

NO SCHOOL TOMORROW!!!



Happy typhoon day! I hope you all stay safe inside this weekend as you wait out this typhoon.

This Week:

Reading - We focused on two reading strategies of using the beginning and ending sounds of words to read and stretching out the sounds. We read some more Pete the Cat books to practice.

Here's some pictures of us book shopping and working of spelling and grammar:





Writing - We continued to write a lot of stories and this week we focused on spelling all the sounds we hear in difficult words by stretching it out. It connected to our reading strategy!

Math - We finally made it to the sums of 10. These are VERY important. I want all the first graders to have it memorized! Next week on Thursday we will be having the Chapter 1 test. I’m excited to see how they will do!

Bible - After waiting for so many years, Abraham and Sarah finally had a baby!! They named him Isaac. We are continuing to see how God keeps his promises over and over again throughout the Bible and in our lives.

Social Studies - We learned about Okinawa and Japan! Next up is Asia!

We celebrated a birthday today!

Every Monday morning we answer a "Would you rather" question together. It's a great way for us to use our critical thinking and reasoning skills. This was this week's!
