Four Winds

Today was our very first Four Winds of First Grade!  We were so lucky to have Mrs. Palmer, Ms. Marlow and Mrs. Roach come to our room and teach us all about spiders!  We saw a puppet show about spiders, we looked at REAL, LIVE spiders through magnifying glasses and we even got to build a spider with felt and feel what a spider feels through it's web- - what a great afternoon! 

During math we rotated through math centers to practice the many math games we had learned this week.

 Tucker shows off his awesome pattern block stencil design

 Ryan F., Summer and Avery played penny-fist addition

 Hannah, Hailey and Colin used Base 10 blocks

 Connor walked in this morning and we realized we were wearing similar shirts!

During reading the students did another wonderful job reading to their partners.  

 Aaron and Colin share stories

 Ryan P. shows Tucker one of his favorite books and was reminded that "c" can make a "k" sound AND an "s" sound

Have a great weekend!
