I apologize for it taking me so long lately to put posts up about our weeks at school. The past few months have been CRAZY, but I promise I will be better at it. :) I also want to apologize for my lack of pictures this week. I tore a muscle in my shoulder this week and completely forgot to take lots of pictures of what we were doing. But I did take a couple! So, here is what we worked on this week.
This week we learned about Nouns. We read a book to help us learn about nouns and we practiced identifying the different nouns with this chart I made on the white board.
Next week will be the last week of short vowels, and we are going to start getting into the harder first grade concepts. I think we are all ready for it!
In math we are starting to learn about different facts. This week we learned about our doubles facts, and we learned a doubles rap to go along with it. I love learning to songs/raps because I feel like they remember the concepts better when they are put to music. It is something they can remember easier.
From now until Halloween (in 10 days!) we are doing to do a "theme" every day to get into the Halloween spirit. On Friday, we learned about scarecrows and did some fun art to go along with that theme. Next week we are going to be learning about bats, monsters, spiders, witches, and ghosts. We will do a fun art/craft to go with each theme and we will read books that go along with each theme.
