Where the Wild Things Are... 09/30/2009
Our class is so excited to share this great story with Ms. Espinoza's third grade class over the next few weeks. Here's a sneak peek of the movie version, coming out October 16th! Sight Words 09/21/2009
View this slide show as a way to practice reading those tricky sight words (also known as high frequency words)! For extra fun, have children create their own sentences after listening to the examples!

Munchers are a great way for 1st graders to practice critical thinking skills. While it’s fun to feed the Munchers, a student is actually working through the complicated process of sorting one or more sounds, objects, or numbers into multiple categories, and working on an explanation for his or her decision! Stay tuned for a video of our class Munchers in action. For now, consider making some to use at home to practice sorting two sounds (consonants, long or short vowels), two kinds of numbers (even, odd), or ordering numbers (least, greatest).
