Wonderful Wednesday

Another awesome day in the Creature Classroom!  Today we learned that there are 3 ways to read a book: read the pictures, read the words, and retell the story. 

Reminder: If you have not turned in your paperwork from Meet the Teacher, please do so by the end of this week.  Thank you!

Tomorrow we will be starting our Daily 5: Read to Self. 

School Rules

We had another great day!  Yesterday we read David Goes to School and came up with our class rules.  Today, I introduced our rules and expectations.  Here are the rules for our classroom:

Rule #1

Listen and follow directions

Rule #2

Keep hands, feet and objects to yourself

Rule #3

Work together, get along and show respect

Rule #4

Small voices inside... tall voices outside

We also talked about being a good listener and what that looks like.  Sitting criss cross applesauce, listen to the speaker, and think about what is being said.  We are also good listeners when we listen with:our ears, our eyes, our heart, and our brain!

Tomorrow we will read one of my favorite books, Chicka Chicka Boom Boom!

Have a great night!



First Day of School

Wow! We had a GREAT first day of school!  We learned so much today!  We read Pete the Cat:Rocking My School Shoes and then Pete sent us on a school tour trying to find him.  We never found Pete, but he did leave us a coloring sheet!  Like Pete says, " It's all cool!" 

We also read the book The Night Before Kindergarten.  We talked about what we did the night before kindergarten and talked about making connections.  Then we drew a picture of what we did. 

We had such a busy day today!  I hope everyone gets plenty of rest and is ready for another day of kindergarten!

School Supplies

Supplies:

I know that some of you are planning on bringing supplies in Monday. We still need about 3 of the Primary Journal/Mead story tablets. I noticed they had a bunch at Walmart, but they were not in the school supply section. They are located in the office supply section with the crayons and markers. Please let me know if you have any questions. I know that the supply list can be a bit confusing.

Below I have posted a picture of the journal. Please make sure it is the Primary Writing Stage 3, Early Creative Story Tablet. Let me know if you have any other questions. Can't wait to see you Monday!

Welcome Creatures!

I am so excited that I will be meeting my new Creatures this week!  We will be having our Meet the Teacher Night on Thursday, August 23rd from 4:30-6:00 p.m.  I will be in our classroom, room 145.  Don't forget to bring your school supplies when you come! 

I hope everyone can make it!  I look forward to meeting everyone!  It is going to be a great year!
