Busy First Graders

We were very busy this past week at school. We now have learned our first 3 Daily Five choices. We Read to Self, Work on Writing, and Read to Someone. We have built our stamina and can now work for about 15 minutes. Ms. Feuerstack began our reading groups and we have been learning different strategies on our CAFE menu. We have been checking for understanding to help our comprehension, using the pictures to help our accuracy, rereading stories for fluency, and tuning into interesting words to expand our vocabulary.

 

 

On Friday we began learning about apples by reading a poem and creating an art project. You can check out our finished products on Thursday during Open House.
