Hello first grade families!

Last week was an interesting one! Not only did we have almost every season in one week, we also dove further into our math block. The class split up into groups, where they formed large numbers using natural objects by grouping them in tens and by ones.

The month of February is Black history month. We listened to stories about George Washington Carver and Harriet Tubman. Through these stories, we thoroughly enjoyed learning about these two figures in history who accomplished so many things.

The tea continues to be something we all enjoy! If your child would like to bring in their own tea so that we could try it for the week - you are welcome to! If not, I am happy to continue bringing in different types of tea for our class to enjoy together.

As a reminder please make sure that you sign up for the Parent-Teacher conferences this week.

Also, please remember that the weather does get cold. Please make sure your child has proper clothing that they need when we are outside. Please note also that a change of clothes should also be packed along with your child each day as well as a change of shoes.

Thank you,

Ki Aja
