Weekly Lesson Plans + Reminders - September 14th- September 18th
/Hello 1st Grade Families!
I hope you're having a nice Sunday evening, and soaking up your last moments of the weekend.
This week we will be continuing a focus on the "short o" in language arts, addition strategies in math, uppercase letters in handwriting, gifts we receive from God in religion, map skills in social studies, and observations in STEAM and science.
For language arts this week I will need you to help your child cut out two things prior to our lessons:
- (Tuesday) Lesson 3 letter list on page 440 of "From Phonics to Reading"
- (Wednesday) "Frog" book on pg. 43
A reminder that our 1st Grade Renaissance Tests will be in person at Salesian on:

Science : How many cotton balls?
Using the term “Observation”, Have your child observe a measuring cup and estimate (guess) how many cotton balls could fit inside of it.
Let them place cotton balls inside and see if their guess changes.
Pour out the cotton balls and count them to find out the real amount!
Was their guess close? Have a conversation with them.
You can print out the document “How Many Cotton Balls?” I sent in the email to use during this experiment. **You can use any item you have at home, it does not need to be cotton balls.
