Hello, First Grade Families,

Last week, we were visited by a mischievous leprechaun who played tricks on our class! He turned our chairs upside down, left messy footprints on the platform, and left clues throughout the week to help us find him. On Thursday, we found notes hidden across the school that led us to his home, and each student got to bring home one piece of treasure.

We also continued our math adventure in the Mixed-Up Marsh. We practiced our multiplication skills as we helped guide Tamara Times to the other side of the path by solving a series of multiplication problems. We also helped Duke Divide determine which numbers were odd and which were even by seeing which numbers could be split into two equal groups.

Next week, we will conclude our math adventure as we use all four processes to solve our trickiest problems yet! We will also continue practicing by twos, our odds and evens, and continue counting to 120.
