This was our class on the first day of school.
This past week and next week, we will be focusing on name games and activities during our reading lessons. These will help the students learn each other's names and also how to write their name with proper capitalization.
This week we read The Wheels on the Bus and Chica Chica Boom Boom.
The students also started sharing their homework. The students that have had a turn so far did a really nice job telling about themselves. It's fun getting to know each other.
In math, we started math stations. The students spend about 15 minutes each day in small groups engaged in focused math activities that develop number sense and problem solving skills. After, we gather together for a whole group math lesson.
Each math station focused on building number sense to 20. The students practiced reading numbers to 10 or 20 and counting objects to 10 or 20. The students love working with each other and are excited to show off what they know.
We are off to a great start!
