K, 1st & 2nd Grade
During September, students in Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade focused on developing locomotor skills and spatial awareness. The goal was to help them navigate the gymnasium in a safe and controlled manner.
Students practiced moving at different speeds and in a variety of positions. They also engaged in creative activities such as mimicking animal movements while moving around the gym, which encouraged both physical coordination and imagination.
During September, 3rd and 4th-grade students focused on learning and adapting new ways to play games cooperatively as a team. Through various activities, they were encouraged to communicate effectively, think critically, and collaborate to achieve a common goal during gameplay.
In Kindergarten, we have been establishing classroom routines, playing name games, and playing games to learn about movement expectations in the Music room.
In 1st Grade, we have been reviewing steady beat, begun exploring with our singing voices, and going over expectations with our egg shaker instruments.
2nd Grade has been exploring with body percussion (clapping, stomping, snapping, etc.) and learning expectations with our rhythm sticks instruments.
In 3rd and 4th Grade, we have started Music classes with our Gilly Good Morning song (shown at our Spring Music Showcase last year), played name games, and have begun learning expectations with our rhythm sticks instruments.
This year in library we are going to check out books, learn what kind of books we like, research and websites and dig into the International Baccalaureate Themes and Learner Profiles. As of now we are discussing expectations in library.
My learner profile right now is Inquirer
I like to take the time to research and find out all I can about any topic that interests me. I can often be found searching and learning whether it is about school, student's interests, travel etc.Â
