What a wonderful week we've had! We excitedly began our Literacy Block in the mornings, allowing children to choose how they practice reading and working with words. So far we've learned what it looks, sounds, and feels like to: Read to Self, Partner Read, Listen to Read (audiobooks), and do Word Work (practice reading and spelling commonly used words). On Tuesday I introduced our Literacy sign-up chart and we are learning how to use this.
We finished writing our Hopes and Dreams books and designed our covers, too. Next week we'll put them all together. We can't wait to share them with you at our Open House on October 1st!
We began sharing this week and it has been great. We're working on being an active listening audience during sharing time and asking questions for more information. We are learning the difference between questions (asking) and comments (telling).
This week I've begun to do some reading check-ins with students in this class. This will continue next week.
Today is our hike. Gorgeous weather so I can't wait to get outside with everyone! Thanks to our plentiful parent volunteers who make this day so special for our small groups of hikers!
