We have been busy sharing our Flat Stanley and Flat Stella projects.
It is exciting to hear about our winter breaks.
We are working on speaking clearly and loud in front of a group.
We worked on a reading challenge this week for fireflies.
We had to go back in the text to find the evidence for our answer.
This is a big skill that we will be working on for the rest of the school year.
Where did you read THAT in the text? Go back and find the evidence.
Order forms went home for our class book we are publishing.
All order forms need to be turned in by January 31st.
We have been working hard to tackle our "just right fits" for math.
Khan Academy Mappers is aligned with where your child is at for the latest winter MAP testing. You can see what skills your child needs to work on to move up to the next level. If you are looking for a way to challenge your child, Khan Academy Mappers does a fine job.
We are also using Tenmarks to work on specific 1st grade standards. Depending on how well your child does on the assignment, he/she may be working on challenge work on this app as well.
Way to go, Cacioppo Crew!
I love how you set goals and crush them.
3rd Graders came in to work on a project with our class for their upcoming assembly.
How can we use our talents to help others?
We have been so busy reading!
It is no surprise that we are up to 900 books on Epic.
Can the Cacioppo Crew make it to 1,000 books by 2/27?
We are well on our way!
We learned this week that we are interdependent.
We count on each other to do our part to help make our class stronger.
In science, we had our first light experiment.
Is the material transparent, translucent, or opaque.
We had to discuss our predictions, run the test, and record our observations.
Our leader read a book to the class "Who's On First."
This went along great with our conversations this week on Habit 5- Seek first to understand, then to be understood.
We began our illustrations for our non-fiction book.
We acted out a reader's theatre that reminds us how important it is to not prejudge someone.
Leaders need to get more information before making decisions about others.
Fireman Mike came to visit today and to teach us about fire safety.
He gave our class a special homework assignment that is due on Tuesday.
Please make sure to have your child memorize his/her address before he returns next Friday!
We learned to stay low and go!
We had a guest reader come and visit today.
Our class loves hearing stories from visitors!
Have a great weekend!
