Second Week

During literacy, we have been learning about the Library Workstation, and today, we practiced Read to Self throughout the classroom.  We used our book bins and classroom library books to practice.  They did a great job finding places to read!  We also learned about the Writing Workstation.  We practiced writing words we found around the classroom on whiteboards.  Henry celebrated his birthday by having a special lunch at the black tables with his friends.

Today, we learned about another literacy workstation: Word Work.  We worked in groups with alphabet puzzles.

We learned about another literacy workstation: Read to Someone.  They loved sharing their books with their friends!   We continued to practice all workstations, and they are doing a great job learning with friends and love having the ability to choose!  We read It Looked Like Spilt Milk and created our very own cloud paintings, which will be made into a class book.  They loved painting their creations! 

Jordan celebrated his birthday with his friends at the black tables.  We continued to practice our literacy work station rotations.  We read the book 'We're All Wonders', and we drew a picture about what made us special.  Take a look at their drawings below!  We shared our 'All About Me' bags and learned SO much about our friends!

We practiced our workstation rotations, which included our newest workstation: Listening.  They are doing a great job learning with friends and love having the ability to choose!  We have been working hard to show our PAWS Pride everywhere we go in school.  We have earned 7 little paws.  Once we have earned 20 little paws, we get a Big Paw and a classroom celebration!
