| In music class, Mr. Perez introduced sound shapes, which are kind of like drums. The kids did a great job respecting the instruments and following directions. They were even able to read 2 separate lines of music, according to what group they were in. Our class rocks! |
On Friday, Disney employees came to play with our students during lunchtime recess. Disney is one of the sponsors for Playworks and they like to come out and see Playworks in action. Many of our students dressed in their Disney attire, too! Last week we filled our 3rd jar of beans for good behavior!!! Our reward was...an extra game time with Coach D! She taught the kids a few new games. One of the activities was racing back and forth on bouncy balls, which was hysterical. We all couldn't stop laughing! Check out the photos & videos below. ( The videos are sideways, but well worth a view. SORRY!) In writing, we finished up our unit on Opinion Writing. The kids wrote an opinion piece on which holiday they thought was the best. They needed to state their opinion, support it with three reasons, and have a concluding sentence. First, the kids used a graphic organizer to lay out their ideas. Then, they used their completed organizers to draft a paragraph. Pretty fancy stuff for first grade!
