Day 2 was great! Today the students came in right away and surprised me by how much they remembered to do for our morning routine. This morning, we did a bus art project. We tied in what we learned yesterday about bus safety by writing three rules on the windows of our buses. You will see your child's bus in his/her folder tonight. Once we finished up our bus, we read the story "Chrysanthemum". We had a good talk about why we shouldn't call other people names. We also had a fun talk about how names are all unique and special. Some of us even shared who we were named after. We made a graph on the SmartBoard using our names. Names that had five letters won! Today we were introduced to one of our Daily 5 centers- Read to Self. We picked a book, found a spot to sit, and we read for five whole minutes without any talking and everyone reading! It was AMAZING! Their challenge was to see if they could make it five whole minutes and they did! :) This afternoon, we had music and library. We ended our day with math centers. I hope you all have a great night! I look forward to seeing you back here tomorrow!
