A Great First Week

We are off to an amazing start here in the elementary classroom. Everyone is having fun, learning a lot, and making new friends. The older students have been amazing role models for a new and younger students. We have been reading a lot of picture books during meetings and each teacher has taken a day to share a few things about themselves with the students.

The students have already been reading and writing so much! Each student has their own draft book where they compose the first draft of their writings. The teachers have also been helping the kids find interesting and challenging books to read.

In math, we are focusing on geometry - all the shapes around us in the world.

The afternoons have entailed art projects to bring our classroom together as community. We have worked on self portraits, heart maps, and alphabet/number charts to display around the classroom. Please come in and take a look!
