What a fantastic first week!
This week we created our classroom vision and code of conduct which you will find on the home page of this site. Students worked in groups to determine how they wanted their learning to be and why. They brainstormed and synthesized to summarize the thinking of their classmates and determine a statement of purpose for us to follow this year. They also decided what behaviors are necessary for us to meet our vision. We also wrote personal goals and activities we could do to meet out personal goals. We went over emergency procedures, made decisions about routines, learned to respectfully greet each other, reflected each day, and prayed together. We also celebrated Lucas' birthday!
Looking Ahead...
Next week we begin our regular schedule! I look forward to meeting with families on Tuesday night at Parent open house! We will begin unit 1 in math, which deals with place value addition and subtraction and problem solving. In Religion we will discuss gods plan and the meaning of creating, we will also attend all school mass on Friday. In literacy we will review cursive letters, read independently and with a buddy, we will also review Bud, Not Buddy and discuss narrative story elements. In science we will discuss heat energy and in social studies we will review map skills. Our behavioral goals will be to self assess how well we are following our code of conduct.
Have a great long weekend!
