Missing Addend Fun

The partner pairs were give a card each. They could not look at their cards. The class told them their sum. They had to figure out their card by looking at their partners card to find the missing addend.

A.R. Pep Rally

I was tempted to post the video of our A.R. Pep Rally to show you how much fun we have in first. However, for the identity and reputation of the other teachers, it will not be posted. Haha we had fun! The children really enjoyed this and are eager to learn.

Amiah came to read to us

We had a very special visitor. Amiah is a student that I had the honor of teaching last year. She began a love of writing in first grade that would inspire anyone. I gave her a writing tablet and asked her to write for us. She did just that and came and shared it with the class. It seemed to have inspired them to become better writers as well!

Math Workstations

The students love to work at their Math Workstations. :)

Nouns and Verbs

Today, students worked in groups to take a sentence that was mixed up and make it into a structured sentence. After they did that, they were to label the nouns and verbs in the sentence. Finally, they were to illustrate their sentence. They had a blast and did a fantastic job!!!

Red Light/ Green Light Nouns and Verbs

We gathered together with another class to use red light/ green light to assess their knowledge of Nouns and Verbs. The kids had a great time and they did GREAT!!

Addition Sentences and Wemberly Worried

This week, the students dropped counters to determine how many would fall inside the cup, how many were outside, and how many in all. Also, I challenged them to make addition sentences to represent their practice.
