This week we talked a lot about what it means to be a first grader in our room. We are a family and we needed to have a discussion about how we will relate to each other within the confines of our group. After our discussion, we made self-portraits and we signed our promise to each other. Here is the finished product. At the end we included a little inside-family joke. Ask your child what it means! :o)
During math we used snap cubes to build staircases. This is an activity where children build and order a set of cube towers from 1-12 and possibly higher. They focus on counting and ordering quantities and linking them to written and spoken numbers. It was a lot of fun!
Last but not least, I wanted to let you know about the Caldecott Kid reading promotion that FCE is starting. Here is the link: http://www.humbleisd.net/Page/30206. I think this class would just soar with this type of challenge! Have a great long weekend and don't forget to read!
