Hi first grade! You all did a superb job in the animal play this week! I think the "Who Am I?" slides that you made in technology really baffled the audience!
The word of the week this week is thorough.
Thorough is an adjective. It means complete or careful.
When you say the word thorough, it sounds like the word "throw" with an extra syllable in it.
It is important to be thorough when you are doing your homework so that you don't make mistakes!
I did not read my book thoroughly, and now I can't remember what happened at the end!
Can you think of a time when you had to be thorough?

blunder
The word of the week is blunder.
Blunder is a noun.
A blunder is a silly or careless mistake.
If you are too hasty when doing work in the classroom, you might make a blunder, like forgetting to put your name on your paper.
I made a blunder when I forgot to put sugar in the chocolate chip cookies I baked. They tasted terrible!
Sometimes people call me Mrs. Horton instead of Ms. Hunter! That is an easy blunder to make, since our names are similar.
Have you ever made a blunder? Tell me about it!
