Week 1

Week 1

I have really enjoyed getting to know each child. The children have been adjusting well to the change.  Everyone has been happy and involved in the exciting activities that I have had planned for them.  This week, we focused mainly on school rules, classroom procedures and getting to know each other.  We worked on behaviors such as raising our hand before we speak, being kind, listening to the teacher, walking in a line and proper restroom behavior. We will continue with the same focus of behavior, rules and procedures next week.  Here is a look at some of the fun activities from the week.

We learned how to play with and clean up each center. The Block Center was very popular!

Kitchen Center!

Making new friends!

We read the story Rainbow Fish and talked about how the fish learned to be a good friend.  We made a craft to go along with it.

 

 

Working on our rainbow fish!

Working hard and having fun!

We read a book called Everyone is Special! We looked in a mirror to see the MOST special person of all! We also made a craft to go along with this lesson.

We hung our fish in the hallway.

Art Center!

We started to learn about the letters in our name. We traced our names with beans.

We talked about our families. We drew a family picture to take home!

We read the book, Chicka Chicka Boom Boom! Then, we found the letters in our name and added them to our Chicka Chicka Boom Boom trees!

Check back soon for more pictures and information. Please remember to put a note about transportation in your child's binder.  I need to be able to know how to send them home.  Also, please bring a snack for your child everyday. Please discuss the difference between lunch and snack time with your child. Also, I am having voice mail issues with my phone. It should be fixed by next week. I can't wait to see my students grow this year. TOGETHER we will have a great year! Thank  you!
