In our first unit of learning we will explore some of the things that make people unique. This week we will look at the characteristics of ourselves and others that make us special. Within this idea we will review the simple elegance of the Golden Rule for our Social Science lesson as we reinforce the importance of respecting the differences we discover in others (HSS 1.1.2).
For the first 3 weeks in Language Arts, we will review many of the concepts learned in Kindergarten. We will review the Kindergarten sight words as well as letter sounds and proper writing formation. We will also review rhyme and syllable segmentation. We will be reintroduced to our first thinking maps, the Circle Map and the Bubble Map as we learn how to describe ourselves in order to begin our first theme project: a book about ourselves.
In Math we will review number sense concepts emphasizing visual patterns and ideas for the numbers 0-12.
In Music we will discuss pitch and rhythm.
In PE we will focus on balance and cooperation.
Thank you for creating this blog for Room 11 class. I would definitely check this most of the time. Are you going to update it regularly?
ReplyDeleteThank you for your question. Yes, this blog will be updated regularly with 5 day lesson plan previews, test result statistics, and upcoming reminders. I will speak more about how to use the information in the blog tonight at Back-To-School.
