Today we rotated through four different math stations while practicing our rules and expectations for math stations. We know that we choose a spot, stay quiet, and do our job!
Today we also began Writer's Workshop! We learned that good writers write about things they know. Everyday we will come to the carpet to learn about writing, practice what we learn, then have an opportunity to share our writing with the class. During Writer's Workshop, we ALWAYS use pen and we have many different styles of paper to choose from. It is always important to have choices! After today I can already tell we have some FANTASTIC First Grade writers!
One last (but very important!) routine we established today was our FLYER BINDER! Your child's Flyer Binder will come home in their backpack every afternoon and back to school every morning. This is where you will find district papers, school papers, and classroom papers. Next week we will start HOMEWORK which will also become part of our Flyer Binders. Please make sure you are checking your child's Flyer Binder every day. If you need to send a note to school with your child, please send it in their Flyer Binder. It will be an important communication tool between home and school!
