First Grade students are currently preparing for their performance
“3 Piggy Opera.” Please mark your calendars for this wonderful event! The performance will include songs, acting and narration.
This project is a combined effort with the First Grade teachers as
well as the Encore teachers. Students will experience crosscurricular learning in art, music and library.
VOLUNTEER PROJECTS
We need parents too! Volunteers will be needed to assist with the
stage decoration (creating a backdrop and decorating the pig houses) as well as hanging art work and other projects to make the performance run smoothly. Please e-mail Mrs. McArthur (angelia.mcarthur@southlakecarroll.edu) if you are available.
Thanks so much for your assistance and support!
This week…
In Math, we will:
· explore place value further…
· play “Cover a Flat” to reinforce place value concepts
· represent numbers using place value models
· order numbers using place value
· continue to problem-solve daily with our “Problem of the Day”
· enjoy our “BUILD” math stations. These stations help to extend and review the concepts the children have been learning all year.
In Language Arts, we will:
· learn that poets convey strong feelings
· experiment using poetic language
· learn that poets use patterns
· learn that poets write about feelings in new ways- and often do so by using comparisons

· practice using the correct punctuation with different kinds of sentences
· read word family poems and discuss the rhyming words

Social Studies- We will continue our biography unit. The children are researching the life of a famous historical figure. To gain information, the children have been reading books as well as visiting some wonderful online encyclopedias and databases.
