What is EET?

Greetings,
During the month of May we will be working with a graphic organizer called EET, Expanding Expression Tool.  This tool provides students with a framework to expand on their oral and written language expression. We have a song that we have learned that can assist us in remembering the questions.  Each student has been given a day to present their "secret item" in the bag.  We will need to guess their item by listening to their clues carefully.  You can also play by reading the clues yourself on our blog and trying to guess each item before you look at the picture.  Have fun!
Ms. Fellbaum

Earth Day Songs



Greetings,

During the last week in science class we have been discussing ways that we can contribute to "saving our earth."  We have watched many different you tube videos and saw what a landfill looks like and  how a recycling plant sorts through the various recycled materials it collects.  We saw video clips that various people have put together using photos that illustrate the beauty of our earth and how we need to protect our endangered animals such as the polar bear.  We have talked about the three R's, reduce, reuse, recycle, and discussed various ways we can participate in each.  We also learned about the latest, fourth "r", repair.

Enjoy the videos we put together to share what we have learned.

Quad Blogging

Greetings,

1F students are very excited to begin our latest adventure, Quad Blogging, on Monday.  We have been teamed up with three other grade one classrooms and will be corresponding with each other via our classroom blogs.  Two of the classrooms are from England and one classroom is from New Zealand. 
This will be a fantastic opportunity for us to learn from other students from different parts of the world.  You can follow our conversations by checking on our blog regularly.  If you would like to check out the other classroom blogs I have provided links on the left hand side of our blog.

Thanks for your continued support.
