Week #1 August 27-30, 2019

Hello Families,
Here are a few highlights from our first amazing week together!  Our class is fun, energetic and enjoys learning new things.  We're off to a great start and have made progress each day.  Did your child tell you I called Mrs. Gilmore, Mrs. Scott and Mr. Coon to brag about them?  Did your child tell you we earned over 200 Marky Marks in our first four days?  Did your child tell you we celebrate our learning, sharing and mistakes with musical cards, chants and by "knocking my shoes off"?

We learned...

  • our classmates' names.
  • our classroom procedures for: signing up for lunch, Morning Meeting, using table baskets and lining up to leave our room.
  • our school procedure for fire drills.
We experienced...
  • guided discovery of our playground and math manipulatives.
  • Wednesday Surprise to share how we will celebrate birthdays in our class.
  • giving and receiving feedback as we wrote our best names and drew our best person.
  • quick images and the game NIM during math.
  • our uniqueness and positive character trait to our class by listening to There's Only One You.
  • our first whole school assembly to welcome us to the new school year.
Other things to ask your child about this week:
  • First Day Jitters
  • If I Built a School
  • our first week of creative arts classes
Enjoy the holiday weekend with your family!
Mrs. Hock
