Happy Friday! We survived our first full week of school! This week we got into the real structure of the academics and of school! We started our Sound Unit this week in Science! Next week we start the experiments. Our focus in math is place value. Some of the above pictures show our math workplaces that support this goal. The SMARTboard game you see is from a great website with lots of resources that support our math learning. It is... www.sheppardsoftware.com.
The bottom (sideways) picture is our new behavior clip chart! Kids in the class are familiar with how this works because they have had it in 2nd grade. They are able to move up and down the chart according to the choices they make. If they reach ROCK BOTTOM, they will have a Purple Code Reminder home. If they reach the top, ROCKSTAR, they get a Shining Star. The first picture is of our first official Friday Fun Day. Students who had their work done and had less than 2 Code Reminders were able to go outside at the end of the day and enjoy time with their 3rd grade friends. Those that didn't finish work in class, and had 2 or more reminders had to stay in. Bummer!
Have a great weeken
