Happy Friday! We had another great week in 1st grade!
This week was a little different because on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, the students participated in Kids Club put on by the MS and HS students for their service week. The students learned how Jesus is the light by doing games, crafts, music, and a Bible story. They all had a blast!! And they got to get to know some of the MS and HS students!
Reading: We read all of the Mo Willems Pigeont books this week. They are so hilarious! We looked at similarities from all of the books. We learned the Mo does some of the same things as he draws the pigeons - called Author’s Craft. We even made our own Pigeon books AND made our own class video called, “Don’t let the pigeon be the teacher!” coming soon to the website…
Writing: We continued to write poetry this week with concrete poems!
Math: We finished Unit 5! Place value is a really hard concept but the students all got it and did well on their test today! Next unit:
Bible: We only did Bible twice this week in class and we learned about the cool story how the Philistines stole the Ark of the Covenant but when they placed it beside their idol Dagon, in the morning Dagon was on the floor and the next day Dagon’s arms and head fell off! The Philistines got scared and returned the Ark to the Israelites. How cool is that!!
