What a busy day! We went to our 1st rotation in art. We integrate with Mrs. Fishkin's ELL 1/2 multiage. Her first graders come to our room and I teach all 1st grade students enrichment acivities. The 2nd graders in both classes are in art. After 45 minutes, all 1st graders go to art, and all 2nd graders go with Mrs. Fishkin for enrichment activities. After 45 minutes, we all return to our own classes. What a great way to have enrichment, meet new friends, and expand our horizons.
We also had our first PBIS assembly. For all the great work students did last year following the 4C's, we now have a climbing wall in the gym!!!! Coach S. will be teaching kids how to safely climb the wall during P.E.
We worked some more on what readers' workshop looks like and sounds like. We learned that it is quiet, we are thinking, our faces show our interest in the books we are reading, and more. You'll see our chart at Open House Wednesday. We also worked on building our stamina for reading.
We ran out of time for writing with the assembly and specials, but we did have time to practice our handwriting. We use handwriting without tears which was created by an Occupational Therapist. We learned about the magic C today and how it can help us make other letters.
In math, we reviewed the calendar activites and we worked together on our calendar challenge. Soon, the child of the day will complete the calendar, while others work independently on the calendar challenge.
Have a GREAT weekend!
