February flew by in a flash! Check out the amazing learning we have been doing this month!
Design and Engineer an Instrument!
Sound Engineers in work and practice. Students planned and carried out scientific investigations this month. Their investigations required clarification and proof that their instruments were making sound. They had to identify variables that contributed to the effectiveness, efficiency, and durability of their design under different conditions! They refined and modified their instruments when things failed and they had a whole lot of fun doing it!
Mrs. L's Valentine's Day Store
Students had to work with coins, determine their name and value and keep track of how much they spent. This is a really easy game to play at home! Please continue having coin conversations with your children.
Valentine's Day crafts and activities!
Fine motor planning, cutting, gluing, folding, organization and following multi-step directions were all in play on this day! First graders had a blast! You can work on fine motor skills with your student by doing more than handwriting practice. Ripping paper, pinching tweezers and beading are important work for developing strong hands for creative writers!
Computer Science Investigation
Students worked with QR codes to review important math learning. Cooperation, teamwork and communication were key in accomplishing success in this activity! I encourage you to download a QR app with your child at home! These are fun ways to engage your child's imagination and get them thinking about computer programing!
Enjoy a restful and happy February break!
Love,
Mrs. L
