In Reading Workshop this week we will be establishing routines and discussing our feelings about reading. Please have your child bring their favorite book to school on Wednedsday. We will be sharing our favorite books and learning about different kinds of books.
In Word Study this week we will begin Words Their Way. This is a spelling, phonics and word study program designed to meet the needs of individual learners. We completed the assessment last week. We will begin learning the routines of our word study time and will complete a whole class sort. I will be sharing more about this program with you during Open House.
In Writer's Workshop this week we are thinking about how authors choose topics. Today we thought of a topic and sketched it on writing paper. Tomorrow we will add words that match our picture. We will learn what writers do when they finish a story!
In Math we are wrapping up our unit on Data and Graphing and moving on to telling time. Students in first grade will be able to tell time to the half hour on an analog and digital clock. Practice telling time at home!
In Social Studies we are learning about Citizenship and Communities. Today we began talking about the importance of leaders in a community!
Have a great week and do a rain dance!!
Mrs. Caballero
