Hello! We have officially been in school for 10 days! The children are doing a wonderful job learning the routines of room 116. As we are more and more comfortable with how things run in our classroom, we are able to do more and more with the academics.
Wednesday is our 2nd visit to the school library. Many of your first graders may have discussed our first library visit with you. The children are allowed to check out two books. One book is for them to take and enjoy at home. (Perhaps add to the reading log!) While the 2nd book is to be kept at school, in their desk. I refer to this book as their "practice book." Once the books are finished (and remember books can and should be read for enjoyment more than once) they can come back to school and go in our red library crate.
A big THANK YOU to those of you who were able to attend our Curriculum Night. It was wonderful to see such enthusiasm for school. I look forward to our one-on-one conferences in October.
