Math By the Numbers
First graders are beginning to practice math addition facts to 10. In class, lessons are focusing on the strategy of "count on" to add two numbers. Girls are looking for the larger number to count on from. For example, to solve 2+5, start from 5 and then count on the next two numbers, ...6, 7. The answer is 7. Girls practiced addition to "Make 10 on the Ten Frame" with two-colored counters.
Math Warm Up
"Count On" From the
Higher Number: 2+7
Jumping On From 5: 6, 7, 8,9
Make 10 on the Ten Frame
Math Journals: Recording Facts
Commutative Number Facts
Practicing the Commutative for 8:
3+5 =8 and 5+3 =8
"Count On Two" Game
Plants & Animals
First graders have started an investigation about what plants and animals need to thrive in a terrarium habitat. Girls worked collaboratively to build a model (terrarium) to investigate:
• What do plants need to live and grow in a terrarium?
• What do animals need to live and grow in a terrarium?
• What structures or behaviors do plants and animals have that help them live in their habitat?
Throughout the investigation first graders are working in their Science Notebooks: making scientific drawings, writing observations, analyzing findings, and constructing explanations about the needs of plants and animals.

Preparing Soil
Picking Up Grass Seeds
Dropping Seeds on Soil
Watering Seeds
PE with Ms. Katie
First graders are continuing to work on teamwork, spatial awareness, and eye-hand coordination! Learning the beginning skills of volleyball with a little heavier balls and using the net!
Finger Light Net Ball
Keeping An Eye on the Ball
Ready, Set - Here it Comes!
