The students jumped right in after the long weekend! For Daily 5, students learned how to be successful during Work on Writing and Word Work. They are doing such a great job building stamina and doing what's expected. We talked about Habit 1: Be Proactive this week and settled into our class leadership roles.
For math, we started the year with step-up to first grade lessons. We completed those yesterday and start Topic 1 today. The math packet that comes home most days does not need to come back to school. If your child does not have something complete, it is because we did it as a class at the carpet, for example. I will hold on to the packet and work with them the following day if a student does not finish for some reason. Students loved the STEM challenge we did today! We read the book Recess Queen, then each group created a playground using paper towel rolls. Class Dojo FYI- this is typically used as a behavior system, but I am not using it for that purpose this year. Students will not receive points for good/expected behaviors. I'm using it simply because I love the class story feature, and it is so easy to communicate through messages. But don't worry, there are plenty of things I do in our room to acknowledge great things! I am working to help students be intrinsically motivated. I hope to see some of you at the community tailgate tonight before the football game! Snack Helpers Monday- Grayson Tuesday- Gavin Wednesday- Roman Thursday- Kyanna Friday- Maria
