This week in First grade...

In Reading Workshop we are reading and discussing Fairy Tales. We made a chart with the elements of a Fairy Tale and we are checking off the elements we discuss in each story as we read. A note will come home in the Tuesday Folder about our Fairy Tale Parade next week.

In Writer's Workshop we will begin writing our very own Fairy Tales! We will begin by planning out our story from beginning to end on writer's workshop paper. Then we will make a story map to make sure we have all of the elements of Fairy Tales in our own story!

In Word Work we are working on the same sounds as last week. I have stapled a note to a practice spelling test we took last Friday. I will write more next week about our weekly Spelling Tests.

In Math this week we are wrapping up our unit on Compairing and Ordering Numbers. We will work on solving problems using these skills as well!

In Science we are wrapping up our unit on Energy and we will begin a new unit on Magnets! We will have a lot of fun experiments to do with magnets.

Have a great week!
Mrs. Caballero
