Today we learned more about the RULER!!! We were able to measure pictures and put their proper measurement beside each picture. We know that a ruler is STANDARD measurement.

We continued our Mental Health World and Writing from Friday. We wrote about what we can do if we or others around us are sad, mad, happy or excited. There were a lot of great sentences. Some students said they could take 10 deep breaths if they were upset, or that they are excited when it is a special day. Great Job Grade 1's!!!

We also did some Blindfold Science!!!! With a partner one of us was blindfolded and had to draw what our partner told us on a whiteboard. After a few turns we would switch so everyone had a turn. Ask your child to show you how this is done at home.

We have decided that our ZOO field trip will be on Friday, June 23rd. If you are able to take the day off of work and have your security clearance and volunteer forms all ready to go we would love to have you come with us. We will need to know by JUNE 9TH if you are able to volunteer. At that point we will make a decision on whether or not we are able to make this field trip happen. Thank you for your understanding!

With the warm weather comes flip flops and sandals. Please ensure your child has runners for outdoor PE. This keeps your child safe and able to participate.
