Besides testing we have been learning about cultures all around the world. Everyday we hop in our "airplane" and fly to our new destination. Last week we wrote about differences in living in Africa, learned about differences in flags in Canada, and talked about making a difference on Earth Day! This week we traveled to England to learn about the differences between Kings and Presidents, China to learn about difference in writings, and Australia to learn about differences in art. Through all the differences around the world, we most importantly learned about how we are all God's children and made just right in his eyes!
Our Plane!
We've been learning some first grade reading rules in phonics! While introducing new sounds like aw, oo, and ou; we also have been reviewing old rules and practicing using them in our reading. The students have been enjoying early reader books and discovering what all they can read!In math we talked about the calendar. We reviewed days, months, and years! It was a lot of fun talking about when our birthdays are and what year we were born in. 1994 sounded ancient to most of the students!
Last Thursday the students had their spring program! They did an amazing job singing and even dancing a little! I couldn't believe that they sang a song in Hebrew and Italian!
Just a few reminders...
