Ok, I know it is corny ....but I just had to say it! The class has made a wonderful transition to first grade. The first six or so weeks have been focused on establishing routines, becoming familiar with rules and expectations in addition to the academics. The practice, practice, practice has paid off for sure!
Our class reward system includes my secret message to the class. When the class displays great teamwork and hard work I reward them with adding a letter to the secret message. Once the message is spelled out in its entirety, the children are rewarded! Tomorrow afternoon the class will be treated to watching "Spookley the Square Pumpkin"! They are so excited and proud of their accomplishment. Click on the link below to find out more about Spookley and the message of the story.
