We have had a fun week of learning. We had a wonderful Veteran’s Day assembly and listened to 1st grade sing patriotic songs! We have been answering questions about books read in language arts and continue to listen to both beginning sounds and ending sounds in words. In math, we finished up comparing numbers. In science, e learned about the weather and even got to see snow falling while we were at school! How exciting!! We also met with our book buddies again, doing a fall walk and a fall scavenger hunt!
