Well, our predictions were
correct! It has been a VERY exciting week in our classroom! Blue, the Elf, kept us on our toes! And, he provided opportunities for reading
(his daily letters and notes) and writing (“firsties” questions for an elf).
We never knew where he
would be or what surprises he would leave for us!
So, Blue, our elf, got
called back to the North Pole to help Santa with his tasks! We were so happy that he was able to visit us
for a while!
This week, we learned about
symmetry as we designed Christmas ornaments. Each student designed ½ of a
Christmas ornament and a buddy would “match” the other half. And, we decorated
a Christmas tree using light color patterns!
On Tuesday (Dec 22nd),
first grade students are invited to wear pajamas, robes, slippers, AND
to bring a stuffed animal to school! (And, your first grader should bring one
or two favorite books from home.) They will be snuggling up with good books and
celebrating the holiday season with good friends.
What an amazing group of first graders! We have learned so much and had so much fun!
