Wow. I have been so excited for this week for a long time. The first week of school is so exciting! It can also be very nerve wracking for children. This week we focused on community building activities, and problem solving strategies. We got to know one another through games and assignments. We had a blast playing some of the games. We learned 2 songs, one is "make new friends" and "Aint it great to be crazy!" I am thrilled with out class! We have some really talented students! I am so impressed. Parents, thank you for allowing me to get to spend time with your children, it is such a privilege! Here are some pictures from this week!

Human knots, can you tell the boys had a rough time? They did think it was pretty hysterical, and it was! It's a challenge to get out of this! Such good looking kids!
The girls doing the same 'human knots' game, I was maybe going to do the whole class together, but half at a time was challenging enough! They LOVEd it though, and they really understood the value of working together and communicating :) That's what makes me smile. plus, like I saidm they are just SO cute?! Don't you agree???
Next week we will be going to our new reading and math classes. It will be an adjustment, but we are excited to dive right into the curriculum! It is also spirit week! Monday is Sports day! It is also Parent teacher conferences this week! I am looking forward to meeting with all of you!
Your classroom looked cute before school started.....but looks even better full of happy students! I am sure you make their learning joyful! Way to be!
