First graders have started an enrichment collaboration that ties into literacy, art, and music! In our reading lessons, we will be focusing on vocabulary and study the unfamiliar words from the song "America the Beautiful". Students begun increasing their vocabulary today, while also increasing their knowledge of U.S. geography and Veteran's Day! This afternoon Mrs.Sweet and the class had a discussion to activate students' prior knowledge about sights and scenery throughout the United States! Students then sketched their own illustrations from the descriptive language to create a mural! Check out our blog again tomorrow to find out more about what we will be doing in music with Mrs. Bills!
