Salihah was our Queen and she did an excellent job holding the iPad for the class while we listened to the story. I see a future teacher in the making.
WE LOVE both books!!
After reading the books and a writing mini-lesson, my students journaled about Pete the Cat. I was so impressed with their writing skills!! Ask your child about using the star writer's checklist.
While part of the group was working on Daily 5, the others were working on a fun Pete the Cat activity. Kylie did a great job writing her first and last name and line number.
Did your child come home telling you all about jitter juice? I'm dying to know what they said!!! The kids loved it and you're probably wondering what in the world is jitter juice!?!? We read a fun story all about first day jitters. The kids were able to make wonderful connections and predictions. As an extension, we made jitter juice (sprite and fruit punch) and it will help get rid of the kindergarten jitters. They all agreed it worked. :) :)
I think jitter juice was a hit!! No more jitters this year!
More Daily 5 modeling. Great job kids!!
We talked all about the book ambulance today. Thanks Mattie for helping.
Gabriel did a great job modeling more routines and procedures. We are still working on them. I'm so proud of my class. They have excellent conduct in and outside of the classroom.
Jahanavi finished her journal early, so she got her skills binder out and practiced counting. This procedure allows them to have something to do if they finish before others. Yay!!
It was another fabulous day! Thanks Mrs. Washington for volunteering! She took pictures of the kids for the classroom birthday chart and printed them. I'll post a picture when it's completed on the wall.
