I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. We spent the weekend
getting Gracie ready for prom! She looked gorgeous!
We have filled all of the chaperone spots for our field trip to
the Thinkery. Thank you to those of you who volunteered! If you still want to
join us, you are welcome to meet us there, but you will need to pay the adult

This week in Reading & Writing Workshop…
We will continue digging deeper into research. In this unit, the
students will use what we learned about research to complete a self-chosen
research project. The students will choose a topic, ask questions, develop a
research plan, and read different nonfiction texts to find the answers to their
questions. In 1st Grade, this is not expected to be done
independently, but with adult assistance. We will also be reading and learning
about the chicks and chickens!
This week in Math Workshop…
We will continue thinking about equality & inequality. This
week, we will begin learning to use symbols (>,<,=) to compare and
contrast numbers to 99. We will also continue using strategies in problem
solving. We will focus on subtraction problems that ask the questions “how much
greater” and “how much less”.
This week in Science…
We will continue researching to learn more about chicks and
chickens so that we will be able to properly take care of them when they hatch.
This week in Social Studies…
We will think about different jobs in our
community that produce goods and/or provide services, and begin thinking about
earning and saving money.
Our Life Skill of the week is Flexibility!
That’s all for now! Have a great week!
