Week Three!

 We had another wonderful week getting to know each other, learning more routines, and we even started thinking about our Hopes and Dreams for our First Grade year (stay tuned for more on that next week!).  Take a look below at some snippets from our week.

We read some great books this week that focused on thinking about ourselves and how incredible and amazing each of us is!  We then each created an "All About Me" page which we will put all together as a Big Book for our classroom that we can enjoy all year long!   












We read the classic story, The Little Engine That Could, and learned about perseverance and the power of giving it your best effort even when things seem new and hard.  "I think I can, I think I can, I think I can..."  









We played some fun math games that had us counting, adding, and comparing numbers.



















We continued to learn about Whole Body Listening and played some fun games to practice our listening skills! 







We got a great start on setting up our routines and expectations for Reading Workshop!  We learned about the importance of "Read-to-Self" and started practicing and building our stamina!!  We even got to shop for books to put in our own book bins!

















We had our first Guidance lesson with Ms. Spaulding!






We spent some time in our outdoor learning spaces and talked more about respecting nature.  We made nature bracelets with special beads that each represent a different aspect of nature. 








Looking forward to another great week with this wonderful class next week!

REMINDER!  School picture day is Monday 9/13!!
