Happy June!
Wow! It’s hard to believe we’ve reached the final month of Grade 1 and 2. We have had such a wonderful year of learning, growing, and making memories together. I am incredibly proud of all the progress and growth each student has shown throughout the year! As we head into these last few weeks of school, we will be celebrating our learning, reflecting on our accomplishments, and enjoying our final month together.
We were very busy in May! In Math, we finished our unit on comparing numbers, practiced our estimation skills and introduced shapes. We spent the last week of May looking at shapes in our school environment. Looking towards the last few weeks of school, we will be wrapping up math with small units on Money and Measurement.
In Science, we have been learning about the butterfly lifecycle! We have our very own painted butterfly caterpillars in Room 1. We spent the month talking about how they grow into big caterpillars before building a chrysalis and finally hatching into butterflies. We look forward to observing their chrysalis stage and pretty soon, we will be releasing new butterflies into the wild!
In Social Studies, we are wrapping up our final unit on community by learning about ways we can be community leaders. As a class, we decided to help teach others at our school how to properly recycle. Students have been brainstorming and creating rough-copy poster designs, and in June, they will create their final posters to display around the school to help educate their schoolmates about recycling.
In Literacy, we have been reading Charlotte’s Web! We had a wonderful time reading our first chapter book! We have been practicing how to make predictions and how to visualize a story without having a picture in front of us. We look forward to finishing our story and finding out how Charlotte saves Wilbur!
Thank you for all of your support throughout this school year. We are looking forward to making the most of our final month together and ending Grade 1 and 2 with lots of learning, laughter, and special memories!
