Holidays Around the World


Today we started our study of different holidays and traditions. We learned about how families celebrate Diwali. We discussed what they wear, how they decorate their homes and the foods they eat. Ask your child to tell you more about the "Festival of Lights".

Monday Catch-up

I hope you haven't thought "no blog posts=nothing fun is going on in K1"! Quite the opposite! We have been doing lots of fun things...

Today (and last week) in math we have been disusing measurement. Today we measured our shoes and tomorrow we'll get to measure our friends and compare.

During our "Daily 5" time we have been building up our "read to buddy" stamina, learning to take turns and discuss the books when we're done reading.

In Science we are continuing our study of fabric. Today we learned how to weave! You might be seeing these very soon...under a Christmas tree near you :)
