Week of November 12th, 2012

 The firefighters came to visit the whole first grade.  They shared about fire safety, and every student got to go into the fire truck!

Math Centers

This student was participating in the Ms. Henault Math Center.  Students worked on showing their thinking in an organized way.  Students then shared their work with the group, and thought about what makes math work organized.

The other two centers were the BrightLink and Ipads.  The BrightLink games we played were Base Ten Fun and Addition Tug of War.  Base Ten Fun helps students with place value and Addition Tug of War helps with adding skills.  Our new Ipad app this week is Base Ten Fun.  It is very similar to the game we played on the BrightLink.  Our class has quite the menu of math apps to choose from!
 Check out our new bulletin board in the hallway!  We made turkeys, and wrote about something we were thankful for.


On Tuesdays, we use the Ipads during Word Study.  Students create words out of tiles.  Our Word Wall words this week were into, said, and one.

The Friday Reading Folders will be coming home but they aren't due to come back until the Thursday after vacation (11/29/12)!  Have a great vacation!
