Here are some photos from our classroom this month!

Art

This month we created Christmas Trees and Reindeer to decorate our classroom and the Gym. The students also did some writing to tell us more about their Reindeer.

Reading & Writing

This month in Story Workshop we have been working on creating characters and settings in our stories. In January we will begin to write stories with a beginning, middle, and end. Students are learning to work independently at their tables while a small group reads together during our Reading Groups.

Graphing

In December we have been learning about Graphing in Math. We made classroom graphs and answered questions about the information we collect. It’s a great way to learn more about our classmates.

Winter Celebrations

Each day during Calendar, students open up a secret paper to reveal a picture of an item used in a Winter celebration. The Grade 1’s have 10 minutes to create that item out of play dough. We also read and watched stories to learn more about different Holidays celebrated around the world. Here are some photos of a Menorah, Unity Cup, and Ornaments that students created.

More Fun!

We watched a Movie with Ms. Gracia’s class and did some fun Body Breaks!
