Stellaluna

Yesterday we read the book Stellaluna.  We talked about what the problem was in a story and what the solution was.  After reading the book, students wrote about the problem and how the problem was solved.  Ask your child to tell you about Stellaluna and how her problem was solved in the story.

After we finished our writing, we made cute bats to go along with the story and to help decorate our classroom for Halloween!

Way to go 1S!!

Columbus Day!

During Social Studies, we have been learning about Christopher Columbus and why he is important to history.  Students watched a video about Christopher Columbus, created a representation of his ship and wrote what they learned about him.  Be sure to ask your child what they learned about Christopher Columbus.  Check out our work below!

Here we are watching a BrainPop Jr. video about Christopher Columbus:

 Here we are working hard on writing what we learned about Christopher Columbus.

Here is the finished product! Be sure to check your child's backpack for their work, they were pretty excited and proud to bring them home today!
