Week 16
January 4th-8th
Look what’s happening this week…
Welcome Back!
I hope you all had an enjoyable and restful holiday break. It sure went quickly! This upcoming stretch of January-March can seem very long, but is an incredibly important time in the First Grade world. This is where I see the magic happen! The children typically begin to take off in reading and gain new understanding of math concepts. Please set your Firstie up for success with good daily reading habits and a nighttime routine to prepare them for the eventful day to come.

We will be working on using vocabulary such as: true, false, exchange, value, quantity, difference, measure, and paths. We will be digging deeper into place value. In reading we will continue to study elements of fiction. Students will be writing a personal narrative this week in which they will demonstrate proper usage of capitals, punctuation, spacing, spelling, and transition words. We will begin our study of lights and sounds in Mystery Science.
