Book Buddies, Carrer Dress Up and ABC Countdown

It's hard to believe but we are nearing the end of this school year. This is a busy and fun time. We will be working on goods and services, informational and narrative writing and solving word problems. Our ABC Countdown has officially begun! This is a fun way to celebrate the end of the year. Please look in your child's GATOR book for reminders of what will happen each day. We have a lot of important events coming up. Look for reminders about those too.

We got to take a break and read with our book buddies this week to celebrate the end of their testing.

ABC Countdown has begun!

Shapes

We have been reviewing and studying 2-D shapes. In first grade we build and draw both 2 and 3-D shapes. We discuss defining and non defining attributes. We also partition circles and rectangles into halves and fourths.

In the Science Lab the students got to plant sweet potatoes for the George Washington Carver garden. They also planted carrots for the Tops and Bottoms garden. I am sure you also saw the super cool binoculars we went bird watching with.
