Hoos Working Hard in First Grade? We Are!

First grade is full of fun and hard work. We take pride in our work throughout the day. Take a look at some of the work we have done this fall!

We enjoyed learning about one another through our backpack glyph.

We have so much fun with math tubs!

Football Friday

We enjoyed celebrating our 1st Football Friday! We wore orange and blue to support our HOOS! 

We love our Virginia Cavaliers! 

Go Wahoos!

We colored Cavman!

Hollymead ladies love football too!

We love our HOOS!

We've Been Busy...

Here are just a few snapshots of our classroom family (and things we have done) that we thought we should capture to put on our blog... enjoy!

American Symbols

During our American symbols unit we had a blast learning about the American Flag, the Bald Eagle,  the Washington Monument, and the Statue of Liberty. We enjoyed interacting with American symbols through video, music, art, and various reading texts. We were able to learn so many facts about each symbol as we visited all of the first grade classrooms to create our own representations of the American symbols we studied during our unit. We even created an American symbol walkway display for our Hollymead community to enjoy in the front of our school.
