We have made it through the first full week!!!

We had a great first week. The students are working hard and always seem excited to be at school. The overall classroom behavior has continued to improve daily! Today we will take our first set of test. This will be done as a group so that the students know what to expect when they have to complete the test on their own in the weeks to come. 

Next Week: 

•  We will be working on the second habit which is Begin with the End in Mind. This habit teaches the students to think of the outcome and then work towards that goal. 

• We will also be getting out early on Friday, September 4th. The students will be dismissed at 1:10. Please make sure that your student knows how they are getting home if you are unable to be here at 1:10.

• You can find the spelling, vocabulary, and high frequency words at the following link - Unit 1 Week 2 or you can find them by clicking on the wonders tab on the left side of the blog. 

First Day!

What an amazing first day! This is such an wonderful group of students. We do have a large class but they all worked so hard to day and they worked so well together. This is going to be an amazing year. 

BE PROACTIVE

This week and next week we will be working on the first habit: Be Proactive. This habit helps the students realize they are in charge of themselves. WE read a story today about Sammy the squirrel and how his friends couldn't find something for Sammy to do that wasn't boring.  The student's shared that it was up to Sammy to find something he wanted to do not his friends. This would be something wonderful for you to talk with your student about over the next few days. 

Open House

If you want to know who your student's teacher will be this coming school year please plan on attending our Open House. This years Open House will be on Tuesday, August 18 from 5:00 - 6:30. We hope to see you there!!
