Weekly Highlights

We said goodbye to our owl unit last week.  This week we said hello to our new social studies unit focusing on families.  As we read and learn more about different kinds of families, students are creating their own family structure visuals to share with each other.  Next week we will start reading about pilgrim families, giving students a chance to compare and contrast their families and roles with those of the pilgrims!

As part of this unit we are asking each family to choose one Thanksgiving tradition to share with our class.  The request was sent home in green folders earlier this week.  Thank you for helping to make this unit a richer and more vibrant learning experience for these first graders!

In math, we are wrapping up unit 3 with domino addition.  The dominoes are a BIG hit with this group!
