We've been busy in first grade and I thought I would share some stuff we've been working on.
Our focus sentence this week was: "I use prepositions to explain where things are."
I used the book "Rosie's Walk" by Pat Hutchins to introduce prepositions.
We made this anchor chart and I got the idea here - Firstieland. Thank goodness for Pinterest y'all! Pinterest saves me so much time.
Students completed their own sentences using prepositions that tell where.
We also wrote a poem about fall.
We listened to the book "Goodbye Summer Hello Autumn" by Kenard Pak on youtube at this link: Goodbye Summer Hello Autumn
After brainstorming some things we say goodbye to in the summer and hello to in the fall, students wrote their poem using the template I downloaded from First Grade Garden.
Here are some random anchor charts we've made the last few weeks. Once again, I'm thankful for Pinterest and other teacher's creativity.
Happy teaching friends!
