We have had an amazing first week getting to know each other and building our classroom community. Today, the students participated in a Breakout Box where they were trying to get our year started successfully. They worked together and broke out with 7 minutes remaining. It was fun to watch them come together and celebrate their success.
We will be going outside on Monday to watch the solar eclipse. We had the special glasses donated by Dr. Jarvis here in Willard. I talked to the kids today about how important it is that they wear the glasses as instructed and take it seriously. I would appreciate it if you would mention it at home as well. This is a wonderful opportunity they have but I also want them to be safe during the process. Next week, we are going to start looking at The Leader In Me. The kids will be making a notebook to use during this section of our class time. I am asking that they bring in magazines, pictures, stickers, or anything they want that are of things that help them be a better person or leader. We will have some time at the first of the week to cut out objects to put on our folders. Reminder, t-shirt money is due by Friday for the Leader In Me Friday shirts. Please let me know if you need me to send home another order form. Students are bringing home their MAP scores from last year in their backpack. They were all really excited to see how they did. DOJO: We will start using Class DOJO on Monday to track behavior. Students will be bringing home a folder daily with their DOJO points in it. In order for students to receive their DOJO money for their positive points earned they have to get their folder signed at least one time during the week. This is just a way to help keep the kids accountable for showing their folder to you guys! I hope you have a wonderful weekend and thank you for sharing your kids with me!
