First grade Library Happenings by Gina Davies https://padlet.com/gdavies14/ykay8yw4alk6 4/27/18 en-us 2018-04-28 00:20:13 UTC 2024-11-26 21:22:31 UTC hello@padlet.com gdavies14 https://padlet.com/gdavies14/ykay8yw4alk6/wish/256182712 This week in the library, first graders learned about dictionaries.  We learned why alphabetical order is important when finding words.  We found out about guide letters and guide words. We also used clues to discover mystery words in our Scholastic Dictionaries.  Some of the clues were helpful on their own, but some of them had to be used with other clues. Your children were very diligent word detectives. ]]> 2018-04-28 00:21:42 UTC https://padlet.com/gdavies14/ykay8yw4alk6/wish/256182712 gdavies14 https://padlet.com/gdavies14/ykay8yw4alk6/wish/256182739 It was fun watching them stick with it until they could figure out the word.  I think the hardest part for a few was not shouting out the answer once they found it!!  My apologies to 1B, we got so caught up in the games that I forgot to take pictures!  We may play the dictionary clues game again before the year is over.
