We have been working hard to develop our positive classroom community and establish strong friendships.
This year we are implementing a readers and writers workshop model for our literacy block. This will entail a daily mini-lesson and then substantial time for reading and writing to practice the strategies discussed. During the reading time the children will also have the opportunity to confer with the teacher and meet in small groups. Once again we have the pleasure to read with our 1st grade buddy class in Mrs. Isensee's room. (Please see the pictures below)
In math this year we are challenging our students to think about math a bit differently. We want everyone to work hard and persevere on problems even if they make mistakes or seem too hard and impossible. Our goal is for each student to gain deeper understanding of number sense and math concepts, reason through problem solving, and explain their thinking.
