Today we were very fortunate to have a world musician visit our school and do a wonderful presentation. Boris Sichon is from the Ukraine and has travelled to many countries, accumulating a large collection of instruments. He has drums, wind instruments, xylophones, percussion and many more. Go to his website (http://www.sichon.com/) to view his instrument collection, watch a video of him playing "bones" and lots of other interesting stuff!
In Math we are working on a pattern unit and reviewing how to form numerals correctly. We have also been practicing counting forwards and backwards from 10. By the end of Grade One, students need to be able to count to 100 in various ways (2s, 5s, 10s) and count backwards from 20 by ones. Here is a good website that we use a lot in Grade One in Math: http://jmathpage.com/. Once you get there, click on Number, then Counting Activities. Activities 3, 4, 9, 10 and 11 in this section are appropriate practice for what we are learning right now at school.
