The grade 1 and 2 students enjoyed playing a new reading game, Sight Word Bean Bag Toss. They enjoyed making the game more challenging physically by moving the start line further back, and challenging their minds by adding increasingly difficult words to the game.
We enjoyed practicing listening to the initial sound in a word and matching it with the correct letter. This a good phonemic awareness activity to help us sound out words that we may not know when we are reading and writing.
This week in English class, the grade 1 students have been participating in a variety of alphabet games, stories, and activities. They have enjoyed playing "Find the missing Alphabet Letter," and putting the jumbled letters in alphabetical order. They also had fun taking turns printing on the board to help with remembering how to form upper and lower case letters. Keep up the great work!
