First graders worked really hard on blends this week. Today they came up with words for each of the blends they worked on.  

In art today, we talked about warm colors (red, orange, and yellow) and cool colors (blue, green, and purple). Students created a "City Scape" with three colors and then drew buildings, cut them out and glued them on their background to show silhouettes of the buildings. Students also completed an art reflection sheet to think about what works well in their art work and what they might do differently. 

Here are the examples I showed students.
