We have had a great week and learned SO much! We learned how to use our book boxes and Read to Self. The students really WOWED me at focusing on their own books and they ALL earned a Read to Self Raffle ticket. I usually only give out one or two but they did SO GOOD - I broke my own rules :)
We also learned the procedures for our new math centers. We learned how to get on our ipads and abcmouse.com. We practiced making pictures with shapes and learned a game called shake and spill to learn about different ways to show a number (5 can be 2 and 3 or 1 and 4 or 0 and 5, etc.) We are still learning and reinforcing routines as we introduce new things to the students.
We also had a firefighter visit us today to teach us all about fire safety. Please talk with your child and ask them to discuss all the things they learned today.
