Busy, Busy, Busy!

 Miles showed up to school in this amazing hair accessory and said he was showing his American pride!!!  LOVE IT!!!

 

Yesterday we made "Hall Heads" these will have clothespins attached to look like arms and they will hang in the hallways to hold our work!  How cute are they?!?!

 

Today was our first ever MYSTERY READER!!!  Aislynn's mom, Mrs. Wendy came and read us 3 books!!  Two of Aislynn's little sisters came too!!!

 On Friday we wear our Roberts Spirit Shirts!!!  ADORBS!!!  Photo cred to Carly!

 

Today we shared our all about me bags!!  I loved seeing what everyone brought to describe themselves!  They also did a great job sharing and were not nervous at all!!

 

I think we have had a very successful first week!!!  

Day 3 Fun!!!

 This is our first day class pic!!  I think we look pretty fabulous!! 

 

 Today we practiced retelling a story using the book If You Take a Mouse to School.  We had fun sticking the story pieces to the easel while we were retelling!! 

 

We also listened to a story about a Monster that is learning all of the school rules and how to behave at school.  We did a fun sequencing activity to go along with it!

 

This is our new Fab Firstie Rudra!  He had a great first day and the kids really enjoyed showing him the ropes!  

Terrific Tuesday!!

 Today we went to the computer lab for the first time!!  They did a great job learning about the computers.  Loving the headphones!

 Today at lunch we made new friends!!  I love taking their pictures can you tell?

 

 We have going to the dining room every morning to practice our dining room rules!!  Today we learned that we aren't allowed to share food with our friends!  We also learned about talking with our shoulder partners!

 

Just for fun!!  I saw I photo op and took advantage!

 

Tomorrow we will welcome a new firstie to our classroom!!  Can't wait!

First Day in First!!

 So we started the day off with a beautiful double rainbow over the school!!  Nothing gets much better than that:)

 

Next up we took pictures of us holding our 1 for the first day.  These kids don't get much cuter than this!!  I loved how cute they all were!

We read a story today called First Day Jitters!!!  The kids then got to talk about some of their jitters or Jigglers as one called it!  Most of the kids said that they didn't have any jitters and didn't need to worry!! 

 

We then turned our brains from Kinder mode to the 1st grade setting!  They ate this part up:)  We learned so many new rules and procedures today as well!  They loved hearing about earning points with DOJO!! 

 

I am so excited about this school year and can't wait to show you more fun things we are learning:)

Measuring!!!!

 We have been learning all measurement this week in room 116!!!!  Did you know that your foot is as long as your elbow to your wrist?????

 

 We also learned that your arm span also measures the same as your height!!!!  They didn't believe me so we had to prove it!!!



 We used non standard units of measurement to start learning how to measure....we learned that you had to use the same object with you were measuring the object!

 

 We went around the room and measured things!!  We used a cube as our unit of measurement!!

Then, we went into the hallway and measured Ezras:)  This rug was 2 and 1/2 Ezras long !!  Today we are going to do something really fun with our bodies and measuring!!!

 

Stay tuned!!!

TESTING TESTING!!!

Sorry for no pictures, but I wanted to you let you know that we finished our first day of testing!!  We are rocking it of course!!!  I am super impressed with our stamina and pushing through to the end!!

 

Thanks for making sure that we were all here on time this morning and had a good healthy breakfast!!  We had good energy and did awesome!!
