The Arctic Freeze Has Ended......well in room 6 anyways!!!

We have finished our science unit on arctic animals and their habitats. The students loved reading, learning, and writing about these amazing creatures. From penguins, to walruses, to arctic hares, and snowy owls, we learned it all! To conclude our studies each student choose their favorite animal. They got to read about the animals in nonfiction text and identified important and interesting facts. With these facts each student was able to write a research report about their animal. This was a major writing project and they LOVED it!!! Add to the excitement each student was able to get crafty and created their animals using construction paper and markers. The reports and animals turned out FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!













What a great way to end a wonderful unit. Next up in science and social studies --> dental health month and the Winter Olympics!

A Nice Long Weekend!

Good Morning Everyone!
    I hope you all enjoyed your nice long weekend and got to spend your Monday doing something fun! In honor of Martian Luther King Jr. Day we have been learning about what made him such an important man. The students also got to think of an idea about what their dream would be to help the country. We created a class book "I Have a Dream!". The students were really touched by the important things that Martian Luther King Jr. did for the people in our country!

We will be having our spelling test on Friday January 24th. Here is a list of our weekly words!

Weekly Words

Welcome back on the first Monday we have had in a while. Today is an exciting Monday, because first grade has begun our weekly math switch. As a grade we will split into three classes to go over more direct instruction for the students needs. We will focus our lessons around the topics we are covering in our regular math curriculum. The students love this time and really enjoy learning from another teacher.
