We have successfully completed our first week of school! It has been a great week, I have learned so much about my students already and look forward to learning more each week. The students have adapted to first grade well. Wednesday we started "Read to Self" this is something that we will be doing daily, our goal is 20 minutes of uninterrupted time of reading. The students made it to two and a half minutes on Friday and I was SO HAPPY! We will continue to build our stamina until we make it to 20 minutes. The students seem very excited about it, if you care to look into it, the book is called "The Daily 5".
This is the students around the room "Reading to Self"
I have also set up a reminder text, when you subscribe to these text, I will let you know of important things going on in our class! I know we have very hectic lives, our phones help us keep everything organized! This app is one more way to keep things organized, if you want to subscribe, and get texts about what is going on in our class follow the directions in the photo below. I have also sent this home in their folders, please feel free to share this with family members or friends that may be involved with your child and would want to know what's going on in our classroom!
Have a happy and safe weekend! I look forward to seeing everyone on Monday!
