Today was a great first day! We worked on recognizing our name, following class procedures, and getting to know some new friends! Please make sure kiddos have basic school supplies each week. Also make sure you have a schedule on their backpack or easily accessible. We did not have "at-home" work for this week, but we will next week!
Today we read The Pigeon HAS to go to School. We also worked on lots of skills with our Quick Start! We compared the Pigeon to the Grumpy Monkey from last week. We will read about these two characters A LOT this year! This was the first week "at-home" work was sent as well. As a reminder, we have no class next Monday!
Today we read We Don't Eat Our Classmates, which is one of Dr. Rowe's personal favorite picture books! We are working on the following skills in each grade strand:
K- Letters SATPIN
1st-CVC
2nd- Blends (and some digraphs)
Today was International Dot Day, so we had some fun reading The Dot by Peter Reynolds. We learned that we should always try our best!
We had a great day today!
K continues to work on SATPIN--We will switch to new letters after Fall Break
1st-Reviewing vowel sounds and consonant blends
2nd-Reviewing consonant blends, digraphs, and r-controlled vowels (this is pretty new, so we will be working on this one a while).
We read a hilarious book about taking our octopus to school and then students talked about octopus in Mrs. Allen's animal class!
We had a great day today!

Today we read The Day the Crayons Made Friends, which is in the series of The Day the Crayons Left, so many of the students were familiar with this one! We won't meet next week, but we'll be back on 10/13 and we'll switch up the skills a bit at that time!
