Highlights
In math, students are learning to use the “doubles plus one”
addition strategy. For example, if you
know 5+5=10, then 5+6=11 because it is one more.
During Social Studies, we reviewed some of the concepts we have
studied this year (e.g., What is a community?
What is a map? What is a floor
plan? What does the word “belong” mean?)
Homework
Reading- Reading
every night makes a huge difference.
Please make sure your child is either reading the take home paper books,
Raz-Kids books, or their own books at home (if the books are at a level where
they can read most of the words and understand what they are reading). At this point in time, grade 1 students
should be reading about 15 minutes every
night. J
Word study
(spelling)- Students all should have received either a green or pink
spelling list. Please practice these
words at home (e.g., practice 3-5 words each night). Students will be tested on these words near
the end of January.
