Newsletter-
We’ve had a fantastic week in our classroom! The students are continuing to learn and practice our routines and procedures. This week, we introduced new ones like lunch routines and rest time, and we also had the chance to visit each of our special area classes!
We are focusing on using gentle hands and kind words to solve problems. This week, we introduced the concepts of red choices (not safe or kind) and green choices (safe and kind). Students began earning stars for making green choices, and once they collect five stars, they get to choose a stamp or sticker as a reward — they are very excited about this!
In addition, we learned how to use glue and play dough properly during classroom activities.
Next week, we’ll continue to talk about red and green choices, and we’ll begin exploring ways to manage our emotions and solve problems in positive ways.
Just a quick note—I have up to 24 hours to get back to you, but I’ll do my best to respond sooner if possible. With students currently learning new routines and procedures, the school day can be quite busy. Please know that I’ve seen your email and will respond as soon as I can. I appreciate your patience!
