Feeding our brain over winter break

Winter break is a wonderful time to unwind, relax, and enjoy our family and friends.  It is also important to find our balance and remember to feed our minds as well.  Please help your child by encouraging them to do some of the following activities during the 2 weeks away from school:

• Xtramath.org (every day a student does Xtramath they earn 1 pt extra credit toward their next math test)
• Study Island- Students have log-in and password information in their binders
• Word games- Scrabble, Bananagrams, Crosswords, Charades, Boggle, etc.
• Math games- multiplication/division war, card games, number puzzles
• If you are traveling or have out of town guests coming in, use this as an opportunity to discuss the states.  Second semester students will need to learn their 50 states and capitals.  Learning this information is much easier if it has relevance to their own lives.
• Have children write their own thank you notes- Encourage use of the 5 parts of a letter and cursive. Also have them address their own envelopes.  These are skills we've been working on this year.  
• Most importantly, encourage students to make time to enjoy good books for at least 20 min. each day over break.  

I hope you have a peaceful break filled with love, laughter, and time with one another.  I look forward to starting 2013 with all of you on Monday, January 7th.  

Celebrating the season

Thank you so much to our parent volunteers for putting together a wonderful holiday party for the kids this afternoon.  We had lots of fun playing games, making crafts, laughing, and being together.  I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season with your families.  :)

Happy Thanksgiving!

This week our students have been celebrating Thanksgiving by being thankful for all of the wonderful friends around us.  First we celebrated the unique gifts we all have to offer by completing a chain of kindness.  You may want to ask your child why we are thankful that he/she is in our classroom.  

We also enjoyed making a Tree of Thanks with our 1st grade buddies.  

We hope you and your family have a happy, safe, and wonderful Thanksgiving weekend.  Remember that we have an early dismissal on Wednesday.  :)

Observing Illinois

Today we kicked off our study of the state of Illinois by making observations about our state.  Students worked in teams to observe photographs of the state of Illinois and record their observations on charts.

Seeing Geometry Everywhere!

Our students have been working hard to learn their geometry terminology.  Below you will find mini movies the students made in their teams today.  Each team had a photographer take a picture showing their geometry vocabulary word.  Then they had an illustrator identify the term in the photograph.  And finally, they had a narrator explain the term and its definition.  I'm sure your child would love to show you which movie they helped to produce and share with you their role in the production of their film.  We hope you have as much fun watching them as we did making them.  :)
