We wrote our first class book today called "We Are Here". On each page the students wrote the letter their name started with, their whole name and something that they like. We then talked about drawing with a pencil and coloring with crayons/markers. Each page says something like M my name is Mrs. Webster, and I like pizza. They did a great job! I can't wait for you all to see the book at our next open house!
Today we also went for a walk on the playground to talk about playground safety. The students in our class were great role models for the Pre-K kids who were playing at the time. We talked about the correct way to use the equipment and not to throw mulch- you'd be amazed how popular throwing mulch is among the kindergarten and first graders. :)
Remind your child to take the papers out of the red folder/ backpack each evening. They will probably be reminded, but try to make it their responsibility to clean their backpacks out. It is their responsibility to pack them at school, so if they practice unpacking at home they will have more practice and more sense of responsibility.
Thank you for your comments so far! It feels good to know that there are some of you reading the blog!
Read with your children tonight :)
