What a rainy day! Where did summer go?
Today we started our day with gym and reading. Then we learned our new "popcorn words" of the week. Afterwards we had snack and recess. We went outside! It wasn't really raining so we got some fresh air and jumped in a puddle, or two, or three. After morning meeting we made patterns using attribute blocks and other manipulatives. We talked about what a pattern is and even talked about the rules of a pattern. We learned that the part of the pattern that repeats is called the core. This afternoon we followed a step-by-step drawing of a bunny. They turned out amazing! In Science we learned about the life cycle of an apple.
We are going to be digging deeper into apples this week and would ask that each student bring an apple in for Wednesday. We will be tasting them and figuring out which we like best, then taking a closer look at the seeds. If you have any concerns, please feel free to contact Mrs. Stanford and Ms. Watkins.
Have a great day! Stay dry!
Love,
The Grade Ones
