Thank you for all of the lovely treats and gifts last week! I'm still enjoying the flowers and yummies! I just loved my Summer Survival Kit! It will be put to good use this summer as we travel and plan many trips to the pool!

Happy Mother's Day to our moms! I hope your day was relaxing and special!
Our Field Trip was so fun! I plan on doing a blog post with pictures from our Field Trip. Our class was split into three groups so I will search for pictures from all of the groups!

READING and WRITING
This week we will write about our families. We will think about each member of our family, and things they like and are interested in doing and write about those things. We will review writing conventions such as capitalization, punctuation and correct sentence structure. Please review the first grade sight words in your child's blue agenda and be sure to practice those at home. Your child needs to spell those words correctly before going to second grade.
In reading we are nearing the end of our chapter book The Name of This Book is Secret. It's getting really exciting and we love discussing the sequence of events as they unfold! While we ready we review important comprehension strategies such as retelling the story, putting the events in the order that they happened and making inferences. This chapter book has very few pictures so we really have to visualize what is happening in our minds!

MATH
This week we will work review strategies for addition and subtraction and apply those strategies in problem solving. If you are practicing problem solving with your child at home, please be sure the steps such as drawing a picture to show the problem, the relevant addition and subtraction number sentences, and words to explain their thinking are all shown on the paper.
SOCIAL STUDIES
This week we will continue our unit on goods and services. Goods are produced and services are provided in our community. We will identify and discuss examples of goods and services, ways people exchange goods and services and the role of market and services in our community. As part of media literacy, we will learn about advertisement and how people advertise for either goods or services in our community.
