Another Great Week!

We have had another great week in First Grade!

This week we have learned a lot of information about Penguins.  The kids are learning some important research skills --- asking questions, answering questions, using texts to find information, etc. through this study.  We will continue our reading next week to learn more.  We will also be working on an Art Awareness project that will allow the students to present some information that they have learned in a 3D format.  Watch for more details once the kids learn about the project on Tuesday!

In Math, we have been talking about Base 10 --- this skill is important as it shows us how numbers are "made."  We have been working with a fun iPad App -- Base 10 blocks.  The kids love it!

This morning we talked about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the change that he caused in the United States.

I hope you have a great long weekend!
