Greetings Team Inspire family and friends!
We are busy here in first grade! We are getting our routines all figured out and are hard at work now!
We spend our first week working on the Week of Inspirational Math. This brought up great new ways to look at math, and allowed for interesting math conversation as we got to know each other.
We also learned a lot of new math games! A lot of these games can be played at home too! Ask your child what their favorite math games are. Bump, sparkle, poison, are a few they might mention.
They really enjoy working on math using playing cards and dominos. We practice addition right now with them, and will use them later for subtraction.
We made a fun fall math activity on the first day of fall. We got them displayed just in time for Family Night the next evening!
In between our work in the classroom, we work on social skills playing group games and playing on the playground.
On Fridays we get the chance to meet with our buddies. We do reading activities, games, and read together.
