Welcome to a new school year! This page is where you can find updates on what is going on in class each week. I will try to keep this space updated so you can get a glimpse into what we are doing in class. If I fall behind of forget, don't be shy to email me and ask for updates directly.
This week, we are getting the year started with a few activities. Mostly I want to get to know the kids and get them used to me and how I run my class. I've posted the presentation I shared with the kids below for your reference.
This week the kids will be setting independent reading goals, learning to play Scrabble (a daily warm-up activity in my class), and practice otehr class activities that we will be doing throughout the year.
