August 18 - 22
Our first week was about getting to know each other and setting the stage for a successful year. We explored classroom routines, talked about how to be kind and respectful classmates, and started laying the foundation for a positive classroom culture. It was a week full of smiles, new friendships, and lots of learning about how we can all work together.
We’re about to fully dive into our curriculum! Next week, your child will experience engaging reading journeys, interactive math lessons, hands-on science investigations, and creative social studies activities. We’ll also keep building our classroom community through collaborative projects and teamwork.
