Morning message
Good morning first graders! Today is Tuesday. This week the first grade teachers will be sending out some videos to go with your learning activities. Today, Ms. Lines made a video to go with your reading activity. I look forward to seeing you all tomorrow at our Zoom morning meeting at 9 am! We will not have a live morning meeting on Friday because I have meetings scheduled all morning. I will send out a video morning meeting that day.
Love,
Mrs. Manz

What is the name of this shape? How many sides does it have? How many vertices?
Trace the figure. Cut it out.
Learning Activities
- Reading. Miss Lines made a video for the whole first grade talking about today's reading assignment. Here is an option paper to go with Sunflower House.
- Review the Understanding your Books chart. It’s important to think about the story or information in your book while you are reading. If something doesn’t look right, sound right, or make sense you need to STOP! And DO SOMETHING!
- Read for 20 minutes. Make a movie in your mind while you are reading.
- Draw a picture of your favorite part. Include lots of details like you saw when you made a movie in your mind!
- Writing
- Continue to book you started yesterday.
- If you are writing a small moment or realistic fiction think about your characters, setting, problem and solution. If you are writing an “all about” book think about what facts you are going to teach. If you are writing a review think about your opinion and many reasons why that is your opinion.
- Write for 20 minutes.
- Word study
- While you are reading, look for blends (2 consonants that start a word like bl, br, tr, etc.) in the books. Make a list and add the blend word each time you find one.
- Math
- Counting Collections: Please collect a group of objects(pennies, lego pieces, beads, etc) and count out a collection of 87 of them. What “organizing strategy” will you use, will you count by groups of 5 or 10? Have someone check your collection. Bonus Question - How many more will you need to make 100?
- Place Value Practice - You may use your collection, or go online to the “Hundreds Grid” site to make the following numbers. If you use your collection, be sure to have groups of 10s and then the extras. Please make 19; please make 34; please make 45; please make 67; please make 72. Challenge yourself with these 2 addition problems using either your groups of 10 or your number rack: 12 + 25 = ______ and 24 + 15 = ________
- Science
- Engineering Process - What is the Question or Problem; Imagine a solution; Plan your design; Create your design; Test it; Improve It.
- Problem: How can you keep an ice cube from melting? Materials: 3 or 4 ice cubes, a pan to put the ice cubes in, things to wrap an ice cube in, think about things that will keep the ice cube from melting. What did you use that kept the ice cube from melting the longest? Why do you think that worked?
- Social Studies
- Each day, notice the weather and fill it in on the weather graph.
