December 11, 2022

 It was another very productive week in first grade! We continued to build our reading stamina in Reader's Workshop, started to record our published pieces in Writer's Workshop and worked hard to write sentences with trick words and plurals in FUNdations! Keep up the amazing work Room 114 Rockstars!

Last week our Technology Specialist Mrs. Carroll came into our classroom to help us share the games we are playing in math in Seesaw! Once I review the students' work, you will be able to see what they did using the Seesaw app! More information coming soon!
