We have been super busy the last few weeks establishing classroom rules, routines, etc. We are talking about CARES (Cooperation, Assertion, Respect, Empathy, and Self-Respect) and what each letter means at school and in our classroom. We have also talked about how to be a "bucket filler" not a "bucket deeper."
In reading, we are working on the letters M and R. Students will be writing uppercase and lowercase letters and they will be learning the sounds that the letters make. In math, we are working on identifying and writing numbers 0-4 and sorting objects by color, shape, and size. Students are working on building stamina during Read to Self and Work on Writing Daily 5 time. Some of our Daily 5 rules are: to work independently, stay in one spot, work the whole time, and work quietly. Next week, I will be introducing ABC Word Work. While students are working independently I will work with students in small groups on letter names, letter, sounds, and guided reading.
