Dear Families,

We had a busy and fun week here in 1S! The beautiful weather has been helping us have long and fun Out Times too.

We have been continuing our Star Interviews and have been learning so much about all of our wonderful families in 1S! Please try to stop by to read our Star Interviews. After our interviews we have been marking where our families are from on the world map and are realizing that we are from all over the world! Here are a few moments we were able to capture:



Students got a wonderful gift this week.... our Bird Guides! Students have been loving how they can find different birds in the bird guide and have been working hard practicing how to use their books.




In Ethics, we read The Family Book by Tod Parr. We discussed how families can be so very different yet the same. Everyone shared something special about our families or something we love to do with our families.


In Math, we learned how to use our Math binders. We practiced opening and closing our binders slowly and carefully making sure we are filing our papers in the right sections!


We also practiced counting with Base Ten blocks. Recognizing a rod is 10 and knowing how to count on from there is an important skill we have been practicing.



With Super Monica, we have been learning colors and have been playing fun games to practice saying them! We are also having our Morning Meetings in Spanish on Wednesdays and have been reading a story in Spanish on Fridays during snack. Thank you Monica!


Morning Meetings have been a great time for us to practice being in charge of reading the schedule, calendar, weather and days in school.



We had a moment rolling on the grass right outside of FL this week (we LOVED it!!!):


Our family mural is complete! If you have not yet had a chance to come by and see it here it is:


We wish every one a calm and relaxing long weekend and for families who will be celebrating Rosh Hashanah... L'shana tovah!

Best,
Min Young and Amanda
