September has gotten away from me, we are well into our new year in the 1st grade. The students are settling into the new routines and expectations. I am thrilled to have each one of them in my class and I look forward to working with them throughout this coming year. Thank you for sharing your child with me and together I'm sure it will be an amazing one.
There's only one week left in the month and we have already completed the first unit in Language Arts, reviewing the alphabet and some of the beginning sounds of letters. We have also completed chapter 1 in our Math book, reviewing the numbers along with number order, and ordinal numbers. In Science we have learned about the Scientific Method and one lesson in our Animal unit. In Social Studies we have been working on maps. With our Religion books we have completed 2 chapters learning about God and the Trinity. Now we are working on Chapter 3. Our handwriting books and journals have given us practice on our printing. We have been busy this year with more to come!
