8 Days of First Grade!

Greetings from Room 109!

Wow! It is so hard to believe that we have only been in school for 8 days - it feels more like 8 weeks because my unique firsties have already learned a bunch! (By the way, unique is our vocabulary word of the week.)

Here are some of the things we've been doing:
  • building stamina when we read our 100 BC books
  • problem solving
  • learning to develop strong listening and speaking skills
  • monitoring the progress of a chrysalis
  • interacting with Oliver Button, our classroom chinchilla
  • working together cooperatively with partners and small groups
  • more problem-solving!
  • raising money for a our Fall Fundraiser
  • reading exemplary books
  • exploring our number wall
  • MORE problem solving
  • creating an "Insect Inquiry" club during recess
  • laughing and dancing
  • creating memories
  • and much, much more!

Here are some photos from the first week and a half:
