What's New in Grade One and Two? September 21 - 25, 2015

HOMEWORK
I am sending home some homework with the students today.  The grade twos have some spelling words with practice sheets.  Just as last year, they will be coming home on Monday and are due on Friday.  Their spelling tests will be on Friday.  Please help your child practice their words and please let me know if they are having a lot of difficulty.
Grade Ones - they will be bringing home a math game in a Ziplock bag to play with an adult at home.  They will be getting a new game every Monday and the games, along with the answer sheets, are due back by Friday each week.  You may want to play the game more than once.  There is a list of the contents of each bag on the front.  Please try to collect all of the pieces before it is returned as another child will be using the game the next week.  There is also a book in each bag for the parents to read to the children. 
Let me know if you have any questions.

LAST WEEK - we read the Bible story about "The Garden of Eden" and made a curly snake.

 
The Lego portraits are posted on the hallway bulletin board.  You need to read the clues and try to figure out which Lego person is which.
 
 
We practiced reading books with partners and by ourselves.
 

 
 
 

 
 
 
SCIENCE
We have started our first science unit about "Air and Water".  We made a painting by blowing air through a straw into a container full of black paint and dish soap and then made prints of the bubbles as they popped.
