This week during math we learned the parts of an addition sentence. We know that an addition sentence is: addend PLUS addend EQUALS sum. We have also started learning different strategies we can use to help us solve addition sentences. We know the best strategy is to JUST KNOW IT, but we can DRAW A PICTURE or COUNT ON if we don't.
Writer's Workshop continues to be a busy time in our classroom. You are going to be BLOWN AWAY when you see how much these first graders have been writing since August! This week we have been working on adding dialogue to our writing. We even learned about quotation marks! We know that we put quotations around the FIRST word a character says and then again around the LAST word a character says.
IMPORTANT REMINDERS:
Parent/Teacher Conferences are Monday, October 28 and Wednesday, October 30. Each of you have signed up for a conference time next week and I look forward to meeting with all of you!
Our Halloween party will be Thursday afternoon at the end of the day.
