We are the “Smart Cookies!”  We work very hard everyday to remember the rules of our school to be better citizens in our classroom, school, and community!

 

This week, we are working on consonant blend nk, and digraphs ch and wh.  We are also learning all about maps and map skills.  Here’s some great websites!

Don’t forget to check out our school library!

 

This is a great site for educational activities:

As we begin our first grade reading, grammar, spelling, writing, and math, it is important to review what we’ve already learned in Kindergarten.  Here are some websites for review:

This is what we’ll be working on throughout the year…

 

We will be working hard on phonics and learning consonant and short vowel sounds such as short “i,” “a,” “u,” “o,” and the digraph “ck.”  We will be working on digraphs “sh” and “th.”  We are also learning consonant blends and now the long vowel “a”.  Here are some fun games to help with those sounds!
