What a week it has been- field trip, and short week- AHH! We went on a such a fun and informative field trip on Monday to Chili's. When we got back to the classroom, Monday afternoon- I had to get right to work with teaching a lesson, because I knew it was going to be a short/crazy week.
Reading:
-We worked on the /sh/ sound in words like shot, rush, wihs, etc.
-We worked on learning about the Setting in a story (Where & When)
-We read a story about King Midas and his Gold
Math:
-We finished Chapter 5 (FINALLY!)
-We took our Math test on Chapter 5
Writing:

-We continue to practice our writing skills daily such as spelling, conventions, etc.
Announcements:
-No school tomorrow (Friday!)
-We will be skyping a class from MEXICO on Friday if everything goes accordingly
-I am leaving for New York City this afternoon, and will be skyping my class- straight from the city. So they will hopefully be able to see the buildings, and hear the sounds of the city.

Writing Partners
I absolutely love teaching Writing. This week I have encouraged the students to plan/edit with their Writing partners. It has been so nice to watch these 1st graders get together, question their partner for more details, and help their partners become the BEST writers! Loved it. Snapped a few pics---enjoy!

Field Trip to Chili's
We got to get a tour of the kitchen, and see what the chefs do. We actually all got to go in the refrigerator, and we even got to wash dishes. We made a yummy pizza, and buttered and toasted bread. We also decorated a Chili to raise money for St. Jude's Children Hospital. Fun day!
Way more pictures to come, but that's all I have time for this morning. Enjoy! -Mrs. Ramirez
In the very cold refrigerator! |
