I’m so proud of my first graders for using their “spaceman” during writing today! ⭐️

Today we implemented virtue brag tags for the first time! Both of these students were role models all morning, so they earned respectful and responsible tags! #GrowingTogether

We started our geometry unit in math today! I use our success criteria as a guide when taking anecdotal notes ✏️👌🏼

Today we started our spider research. To increase student engagement, I covered the board with cob webs and spiders 🕸🕷 They LOVED it! It was so quiet while they researched that I could have heard a pin drop!

So many S blends were created in phonics small groups this week!

We are working hard to publish our books about our favorite animal! ✏️ #GrowingTogether

In small group, my students created their own true or false equations!

Today we worked on sharing our strategies during the math mini lesson!

We love having Denise Gielas Wilson come in to practice math talks with us! #GrowingTogether

Today we “read by the fire” and the students LOVED it! ❤️💚

In phonics group we used paint bags to practice writing and spelling our words! 🎨

Today my firsties were SO engaged while researching MLK! They loved watching videos of his “I Have a Dream” speech ❤️ I just love their enthusiasm about learning ❤️

We LOVE to do yoga brain breaks! 🧘‍♀️🧘‍♂️

Yesterday was a wonderful day for a class lunch picnic! 🍎🍌🍉🍇🧺

We love using our new sand boxes in phonics to practicing our spelling patterns! 🐚

Thank you @TpTdotcom for the wonderful resource! I now have a cute post card template to use when writing letters to my students!

Today we read the story “Be Kind” and made a virtual kindness cloud! My firsts are ROCKING virtual learning! 💗🌈

I am so incredibly grateful for all the wonderful supplies I got today!

I am loving the Conscious Discipline Institute! #CD1Baltimore 💙

I had such a great week at #CD1Baltimore! So excited to implement everything I learned this upcoming school year! 💙
