First Week of First Grade

Wow, our first week of first grade was busy, fun, and exciting! Here are some bits from our three days...

Every morning we sign in, read and respond to the Morning Message, take down our chairs, and have choice time. Children can play with materials in the room or go to Mileage Club (Mileage Club begins on Tuesday!)

We uncovered a few materials this week including: Geoblocks, Pattern Blocks, Connecting Cubes, and Base 10 Blocks. Children shared creative ways to use the materials as well as how to take care of them. 

We had our first All School Share as First Graders! Thatcher was there and so were our new principals and Ms. Goodnow's dog, Cooper!

 

On Friday, we reflected on our first week of first grade. We read My Brave Year of Firsts, by Jamie Lee Curtis and after revealing the colored pencils, we drew our favorite memories from our first week of first grade. Here is some of our work:

We had an adventurous first week of school! By Friday this was the response on the Morning Message:

Tomorrow we will start our first four day week, so remember to get plenty of rest! :) 

See you all soon for more learning, fun, and exploration!
