Week 29

Week 28: March 18-22


Pajama Party

This is it! The big 1st grade performance is THIS WEDNESDAY!

 

*Please plan to have your firstie at St. Joe high school by 4:45. The children have worked very hard on their performance. We are so proud of them!


*Students should wear pajamas to school on Wednesday and for the show that night. 


Animal Project

We have been working on researching and studying animals in class. Please ask your Firstie all about this. They should be able to tell you their animal’s name, details about its appearance, habitat, and family. It has been a bit tricky in some cases to find out if certain animals live in groups, what babies are called, how long they live with their mothers (if at all), and so forth. We would love for you to discuss this with your Firstie and maybe do some reading together at home. In class we will be writing an informational report.  As a way to demonstrate their learning, we ask each student to create a project at home.  

*Projects are due Monday, April 15. 


Please select one of the following to make together with your Firstie:

  • Diorama

  • Model

  • Poster


Projects should:

  • Include accurate details

  • Show effort

  • Demonstrate understanding of the animal and habitat 


Please use whatever materials you would like.  If supplies are an issue, please let your child’s teacher know and we will provide materials to create a poster.  Completed projects will be on display at school for about a week before being returned home.
