Food Friday

 

After reading A Bad Case of Stripes by David Shannon...yes, we tried lima beans!!!

 I put out the extras...

 

Yes, they were gone!!!

Fix my book!

This author really wanted her pages to stay together and since we couldn't staple them because the words would get cut off, I got crafty!

My sewing kit came out and I quickly sewed it together.  While it wasn't the best sewing I've ever done, I'll do better next time for students who want their books together!

Some New Authors

I am hoping to use a new app shared by a fellow teacher to allow the students to share their voice more predominately on the blog.

Here goes nothing...

You'll see some of their posts popping up soon!

Test

In the morning...

In the morning, I used to have worksheets and papers for the class to complete.  What I found what that the kids that needed them were late from breakfast or couldn't read the paper on their own.  So, morning choices began.  They can read, draw, write, talk, play a math game, take an AR quiz, or whatever they choose.  They MUST read the morning message, but after that, it's their choice.  I like choice much better!

Hard Work!

This was the longest book he has ever read!  He was so proud of himself!

Research!

What do you do when you find a slug in your yard?  Bring it to school!  That's just what this girl did...and she checked out a book from the library to learn more and then shared her information with us!

Helpers!

What you see here is a mess...but what I love is that students are constantly helping me out.

Today, when given a choice between playing a math game or helping me put tape on papers for the hallway, a boy chose helping.  He told me it's because he's a Boy Scout and you should always help.

Love this class!!!

Thinking

I asked a student how he solved his math problem. He asked if he could draw how he got his answer. 

Classic!

Sometimes, you have to stop playing the game because a pillbug is on the counter.

Celebrating!

Part of our school building celebrates its 60th birthday this year.  To kick off our reading theme, we had a 50s themed sock hop.

Here are a few highlights from it...

 Here's a few grooving away.

Help us Learn!

With ever growing technology usage, the time for better keyboarding skills is now.  

We learned where home row was today and I will be putting some keyboarding sites on our stations page.  

Feel free to help us out and teach us what you know!

Keyboarding Puzzle

Keyboarding Sites used by another school - parent supervision is advised.

Wow!

My library grew and grew and grew!  Thanks to my future mother-in-law, who recently retired and gifted me with lots of books!  My class was so excited!

We're back!

It's been a full month of school and I am just now blogging!  Oh no!  

Be ready for a lot of posts!  My goal is two weekly and hopefully more than that.  

I can't wait for you to get to see this amazing colony of busy bees!  They make me smile each and every day.

Ten to go...

Since we only have ten days left, we are opening an envelope each day with an activity that children brainstormed.

Sorry for sideways photos...
