Whew! We made it through another week and we were yet again, busy, busy, BUSY! Our sound of the week was long A and all the ways we can make a long A sound-_ay, ai_, a_e, and a. We had wonderful scores on this week's spelling test! I am so proud of my first graders for working so hard to learn the sound patterns!
With February being dental health month, we talked about dental health this week. Did your first grader bring home a paper toothbrush? Ask your first grader to tell you about our "toothbrushing challenge". We have also worked all week on drafts of a friendly letter to the toothfairy. We finished our final copy this afternoon. Our first graders can't wait to show off their hard work on this darling project!
In math, we learned about even and odd numbers, skip counting by 2's and finally, double addition. Quiz your first grader to see if they can recite their doubles (2+2, 3+3, 4+4...). Remind them that answers to double are always EVEN!
Are you working on your Valentine's boxes? Your first grader is welcome to bring their box on Monday. Please remember that our party is Tuesday. We will distribute Valentine's on Tuesday.
I am looking forward to seeing you all at conferences next week. Thank you so much for all of your for getting your confirmation slips back to me. Have a warm and cozy weekend. See you all next week!
