One of our favorite times during the school week is Monday afternoons from 2:30-3:00 because we get to be with our special friends in Mrs. Canning's Kindergarten class! We love reading to each other, doing projects together, and making new friends. Check out all of the reasons why we love our Book Buddies in the comments below. Our fabulous class has gotten many compliments for their respectful and responsible behavior. I'm very proud of them. Each time they get a compliment a piece of Mr. Potato Head is added. When he is complete we get a special choice from my treasure box or 15 minutes of extra recess. When he has been put together a total of 5 times, we choose a bigger and better prize! Way to go 2nd graders. I love celebrating your great behavior! We have been having great discussions about a variety of genres in Room 2! I've been so impressed with my 2nd graders as they build stamina during Read to Self and Read to Someone during Daily 5. I've listened to great book conversations amongst the students and thought out loud to them, "Why don't we blog about our favorite books." Feel free to log on and add your favorite book title, adults included :), or simply read our comments to find a great, new book to read!
Hello 2nd graders in Room 2! I am SO excited to meet you all and have a fun, exciting year of learning and laughter! I have been enjoying looking at a website called Pinterest this summer and came across this poster that I love and sums up the community and family we will create together this year. Here it is... "In our classroom.... We do second chances, we apologize, we forgive, we respect each other, we keep our promises, we never give up, we encourage one another, we laugh OFTEN, we believe in ourselves and in each other, we learn, we have fun, we belong.... We Are A Family" :) Christopher Robin, (to his pal Winnie the Pooh), also has great words of wisdom I would like you all to remember this year..." Promise me you'll always remember you're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think." Hi My new 2nd grade friends! It was so great to meet most of you this morning. It's going to be a fantastic & fun year! I can't wait to get to know you all better. We can start right here on our class website.... Let's blog! Leave a comment and let me know something special about yourself or write about your favorite summer activity. Can't wait until tomorrow for the 1st day of school! |
