Updates From First Grade

These first graders have been excitedly working their way through the publishing process in preparation for our author showcase next Friday at 2:15!  Here is a little sneak peek at their masterpieces...

Our new science unit focuses on weather!

Students made a weather word wall.

We learned more about weather symbols and the importance of correctly forecasting the weather.  Students brainstormed some professions that rely on weather predictions.  Here are just a few from their list:

pilots
bus drivers
Hannaford truck drivers
teachers

Then, we all made our own five day forecasts to hang in the hallway!

In math, we added dollar bills to our money pouches.  We've been practicing counting money and making exchanges with dollars.
