It’s hard to believe it’s already September! I hope you and your family and had a wonderful Labor Day weekend together! We had a very relaxing one and it was just great!
This week in math we will be comparing and putting numbers in order. For instance, if I give two numbers, the students will tell me which number is bigger and which one is smaller. Later in the week, they will be given 3 numbers to put in order from smallest to largest. If you are able, please try this at home with your kiddos.
In Science, we will discuss the habitats of different animals. In the last two weeks, we have learned about living and non-living things and what living things need to stay alive. This week we will choose 2 animals to research their homes together.
In Literacy, we will continue to learn the routines and procedures of 1st grade and our Daily 5 centers. I will begin testing students to see where they are in their reading levels as well as a quick spelling assessment to see what areas of spelling we need to work on with each child.
Our sight words for the week are:
said the play are she he
As you read with your child this week, help them to look for the sight words that they know and the ones we are working on this week.
We are having a wonderful time in 1st grade! Your children are working very hard each day and are eager to learn. Please feel free to contact me at school if you have any specific questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Duggins
