First Week of School By Emily and Zach

The first week of school we started learning about expectations for the class.We all participated in making our list.
They are:
RESPECT
Body Under Control
Voice is Appropriate for Learning
Polite
Treat Others the Way You Want to be Treated

RESPONSIBILITY
Put Things Where They Belong
Take Care of Your Stuff
Do your BEST
Have FUN!
We also wrote our dreams on a poster board and made a team called Team Work Makes the Dream Work. o

What we have been doing in math is Poison. You have 13 pieces and the person who ever has to take the last piece loses. Pig is another game we played. Pig is where you have 2 dice and you try to get to l00 who ever gets there first wins. Addition tests in different groups. If you can please ask your child to describe the 9 Holes game. It is another game we played.

What we've been doing in reading this past week is Read TO Self. We also have read an awesome book called Mr. Falker by Patricia Polacco. It is a book about a girl who has confidence that she'll learn how to read. But it doesn't happen very quickly. She tries and tries but she just gets laughed at. We learned the theme of this story is that there are important people in your life who shape your life. So in writing we have made a class book about how someone has shaped your life. And we wrote a letter to someone that changed your life and is special to you.

This is our class blog and have a good weekend!
