Hello wonderful first grade families! We hope that you had a fabulous 3-day weekend especially with such beautiful weather. We had a nice week last week getting to know Mrs. Hill and we are very excited to have her in our class. Here is a summary of what we are studying this week.
Literature: We will be studying two new fables this week, "The Wolf in Sheep's Clothing" and "The Fox and the Grapes." Ask your students to tell you about these fables and what the moral of each story is.
Science: The students have been really enjoying our ocean unit. This week we will be learning about sea horses, invertebrates that live in the Abyss, sea stars, and angular fish. Angular fish have a special feature called bioluminescense that the children will be able to tell you all about by Friday.
History: We are excited to learn about the pilgrims this week. We will talk about the Mayflower and the First Thanksgiving. We will also talk about the Puritans along with similarities and differences between the Pilgrims and the Puritans.
Have a wonderful week!
