Welcome Back!

I hope everyone had and enjoyable, relaxing break.  Now we're in the home-stretch to the end of the year, it is amazing how quickly it has gone! 

We've been learning about personification and hyperboles through our reading and poetry.  The first graders enjoyed thinking of examples of hyperboles they've heard in real life like, "I'm as fast as lightning!" and "I'm so full my stomach could BURST!" 

In math we're reviewing everything we've learned so far this year. Our main focus will be on time, money and place value.  We have improved our basic math skills *so* much this year.  I am really proud of all of the first graders and their dedication to Xtramath and their fast math worksheets. 

We will begin our science unit on chicks as soon as our eggs arrive this week.  It is an exciting time in our classroom! 

We are collecting hearty soups for the Colchester Food Shelf if you'd like to send some in!

We have lots of pictures to catch up on, so... enjoy!
