It is the final six weeks and we are in the homestretch of the school year! In writing we are working on learning how to create stories based on the topics that each student chose to write about.   In reading we are learning how to correctly identify homophones, contractions and words that have –all and –aw in them.

Science is taking us out of this world as we learn all about Earth and Space, what they are made of, how our weather changes and the sun!

Now that we know all about addition and subtraction, it’s time to learn all about shapes, length and how to tell time!

As we continue our journey to the end of Lent we are preparing our hearts for Easter and learning all about why Jesus died for us and the days leading up to Easter!

We have many fun events coming up in our class. April is filled with a Field Trip to the XIT Museum, the County Courthouse and the public library to learn all about history in our community. A day to spend with our favorite Teddy Bears, having a picnic and enjoying the company of our classmates. Come May we will participate in our Track meet with DCA! The last 28 days of school will be packed with learning fun activities and memories that will last forever. I can’t wait to spend this time with the students, watching them soak up every minute of their finals days of 1st grade!

As the end of the year fast approaches us, we are working hard and preparing for 2nd Grade!
