First Grade
First Graders are "EGG"cited about spring!
Thank you to all of you who were able to attend our Open House. The students were so proud to show off all of their hard work!
In Fundations, we will be learning about long vowels with magic e. Please continue to encourage your child to practice reading and writing the sight words at home.
In English Language Arts, we have been reading different versions of Jack and the Beanstalk and The Three Little Pigs. We are comparing and contrasting the different versions. We will also be reading My Father's Dragon. This is always a favorite read aloud for first graders!
In Math, we continue to learn about place value while adding and subtracting tens within the number 40. We will be adding two-digit and single-digit numbers within 40. At home, playing games on a hundreds board is a great way for your child to become more familiar with numbers. You can pick a random number within 40 and ask your child what is one more, one less, ten more, and ten less.
As always, thanks for your support.
