Grade ones St. Emily School are learning to use a numberline today. We worked on counting and skip counting with a numberline. Then, we played a dice game to get used to going forward and backward with partners. #ocsbmath

Today Grade Ones St. Emily School worked through our UF Literacy Institute lesson. We made words and listened and spelled a sentence with an uppercase and period! #ocsbliteracy

Today Grade ones St. Emily School read their first decodable passage from UF Literacy Institute . We talked about how we use details about a text to help us draw and label a picture. This was very scaffolded but eventually students will work towards independence #ocsbliteracy

Today Grade ones St. Emily School spun a number and represented it in many ways. Students learned that mistakes are part of the learning process and we had fun working with partners. Great job challenging yourselves! #ocsbmath #mathup

Grade ones St. Emily School are having fun using #mathup. We used base 10 to make big numbers. Students could visually see greater and less than numbers when comparing. Then we learned a new math symbol and about an alligator that likes the number that is greater. #ocsbmath

I was inspired this week to create @LMazzarelloOCSB 's nature bracelets with my class. With our reading buddies, we created beautiful bracelets. Grade 6s helped add an additional piece of tape to create nature bookmarks.❤️. #ocsbarts St. Emily School
