Using Your Resources!

Well, it's Thursday, so we did a lot of learning today!  First of all, the Firsts did a pretty good job turning in their first homework assignment.  Just a little reminder that your child should bring the homework folder WITH the homework in it every day to school.

On to the day...we spent the morning learning how to properly write tally marks by doing a Listen and Tally Activity; Dice, Roll, Tally game in our journals, and graphing with tallies.  Here's what we found out about the Firsts and what pets they own.

Our next project included using our resources and learning to research information to write a class book!  Sounds so advanced, huh?  Well, the Firsts learned to look in ABC books to gather information about what pictures they could draw for a class ABC book.  They were very focused and serious about their research assignment.  They did a wonderful job illustrating their pages, and some Firsts even referred back to the books for more ideas.  I'm so proud of their first project.
