Good Morning Grade 1!

Today is "trying" Tuesday, May 5th.

It looks like it is going to be another dark, rainy day. Maybe it wil a jammie day for me today.

When it's rainy I like to eat lots of snacks. I am going to try to stay away for the treats in the cupboard.

What are you going to try and do?

I was sooo happy to see some of you yesterday. It really made me smile to see your smiling faces. 

Have a terrific day, stay dry! 

Love, Mrs. Sobey

Dear Mom and Dad,

We are now entering our 5th week of “Home Learning.” I want to thank you once again for the help that you have been giving your children to complete their learning activities. The direction remains the same, please “do what they can, when they can.”  Reach out if you have any questions or concerns that you like to discuss with me. My email address is jodi.sobey@nbed.nb.ca. Have a good week!

Hello Boys and Girls,

Today is Monday, May 4th.

I hope you all had a nice weekend and enjoyed all the sunshine.

It looks like today might be cloudy with some showers.

I posted the answer to your word problem from last week. Do you like the dogs I drew?

I am going to the school soon to wait outside for you all to come pick up your things. 

It makes me sad that our time together ended early.  

I am missing you all a whole bunch!

Love, Mrs. Sobey 

Language Arts Activities

Read Aloud

Follow this link: https://classroommagazines.scholastic.com/support/learnathome/grades-1-2.html

Scroll Down the page to “Day 5” and Click on “Take Me There”.

Watch “Dem Bones” story.

Then, return to https://classroommagazines.scholastic.com/support/learnathome/grades-1-2.htmlScroll down to Day 5 once again and complete the “Whose Bones Are These?” spelling activity.

Writing

On a piece of paper, have your child either create a skeleton using glue and cotton swabs or draw a skeleton.  They can be creative doing this. When their picture is finished, have them write a short storytelling what you know about skeletons or bones. Or they could use their imagination and make up a story about a pretend skeleton. They should work on this activity for about 15 minutes. They will have more time to complete it on Wednesday.

 * Remember boys and girls, capital letters are used to begin sentences, for the word “I” and for the names of people and places. Also, don’t forget to use stop marks to show the reader where your sentence ends.

Math Activities

Warm Up

Practice skip-counting by 2’s to 20, then you are going to try counting by 2’s to 30. Can you go that far boys and girls? (Parents, the expectation for then end of Grade 1 is that students would be able to count by 2’s to 20.)

Follow this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvTcpfSnOMQ

Then, count around the circle by 2’s to 20 with your families. You will have to teach mom and dad how to play this game. 

Dreambox

Follow this link: https://play.dreambox.com/login/knjs/6a9h

Your goal is to complete 10 activities this week.

Math Word Problem of the Week

This week students are going to learn about “estimation.”

Estimation means making a thoughtful guess about how many there is of something, the answer is NOT exact. When estimating we use the words “about, close to, and almost.”

Please have your child begin by watching this short video that explains what “estimation” is and provides a few examples. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dy7MH2hZx9o

The question had to be posted separately under the “Documents” tab as there is an image to go along with it. 

In addition to the activities suggested above students are encourage to read independently, participate in some physical activity and complete the task from the “Social-Emotional Learning” calendar.  

Here is a picture of my work boys and girls. Thank you so much to those that sent me an email with a picture of your work. You all solved it correctly. Hip, Hip Hooray!
