Welcome Back

Welcome back to school!  It was an amazing week filled with lots of activities and making new friends.  This year we have ten students in our first grade class.  This week we've been working a lot on learning the class rules, schedule and routines.  We've started our Graphing Unit in math and even worked with partners during a math center!  We also started our Map Unit in social studies and worked on following directions with a basic map.

Happy Mother's Day

The kids loved making their Mother's Day gifts!  Don't worry Dads....we've got something special planned for you as well!

Nouns

We're reviewing our nouns= person, place, and things!  Next week we'll review our verbs and adjectives.  We're almost ready for 2nd grade!

H= Hat Day & Our Annual Race For Education

Today we celebrated our H Day by wearing hats.  It worked out perfectly since it was also our Race For Education Day!  The kids walked/ran laps with friends and family all to raise money for our amazing school.  We even had a special visitor from the Chicago Bears!
