We Are 100% Smart!

We finished a survey today that showed our strengths. We learned that we all have special talents and abilities. Some of us are art smart, while others excel in numbers or people skills.   The students learned a lot about themselves. 

Classifying Animals

Today we classified animal characteristics based on the 5 different types of vertebrates. 

Reading and Writing

In writing time today our classroom looked like a scrapbooking party. The class had a lot of fun and did a great job decorating their writers' notebooks. 

In reading we reviewed what is expected in independent reading. We have quite the theatrical bunch!  Some students demonstrated good reading behavior, while many wanted to show us what NOT to do!  We also added another five minutes onto our independent reading time. 

Reading, Science, and Birthdays- Oh My!

We had another great day!  We started to build our reading stamina. We started with 30 minutes and they were awesome!  We started science today and we classified animals. 

Day 2

We had another great day today!  We will decorate our writer's notebooks on Tuesday so I have asked students to bring in any supplies they would like to use to decorate on that day.  They can bring photos, magazines, duct tape, stickers, etc. 

Girls on the Run sign up begins online this Monday!

Have a great weekend!

Hurray it's the First Day!

We had a great first day getting to know each other!  This is such a great class and I am very excited for this year.  Don't forget to return all notes for the office that were in the folders from Meet the Teacher.  Students will also need their tennis shoes for P.E. tomorrow.  Have a great night!
