Friday Announcements 3/16/2012

Spelling: Spelling list is in their folder. Please see their pretest as well.
Reading: Students are learning to SYNTHESIZE. Students are putting all of our comprehension keys together. They are making connections, adding to their schema, visualizing, inferring, predicting, determining importance, and questioning.

Please have your child read the story, "On the Job withDr. Martha Smith" to you in their blue reading books. We will have a vet come visit the kids at school on Monday.
Math: Students are learning their math facts. We are continuing to focus on -1, -2, -3. Students will have a test on THURSDAY on those math facts. Please have them practice each night. We have also been playing in a tournament in class where the students have to say the answer faster than their opponet. This brings a lot of fun and competition to our classroom. We will be playing in a tournament with the other first grade classrooms in April, so KEEP PRACTICING.  Over spring break, start working on doubles 2+2, 4+4, etc. and sums of 10 (6+4,2+8, 7+3, 1+9, etc.) 
Social Studies: Students are learning about Benjamin Franklin and his inventions. We will continue to study Benjamin Franklin through several experiments next week.
