We have been busy!

The beginning of the year is always super busy and hectic as we are all getting into the daily routine of a brand new school and a brand new class.
We have spent the past couple of weeks getting to know each other and "fine tuning" our daily routine and, of course, having LOTS of fun in between! 
Here's a peek at what we've been up to lately in Room 309!

 We worked on using math manipulatives {of course we played too}!
 We worked on writing and counting numbers 1-10 with Chester from the "Kissing Hand" story.
 We sorted letters on our "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom" trees.

 We began working in our Imagine It Skills Practice books, applying many different language and grammar skills learned daily.
 We made our first "themed snack."  Our yummy Chicka Chikca Boom Boom trees! {crackers, apple slices, grapes, and alphabet cereal}
 The best part of our first weeks together has been meeting and hanging out with our "big" second grade reading buddies {Mrs. Green's Class}!  
We are so excited to share our year with these "big kids."

This week we will be planting our first set of vegetables in our "reading buddy" garden!  We are so excited to grow our own food and then EAT IT!!!



***If you have not signed up for a Parent-Teacher Conference please do so as soon as possible!!!  These are MANDATORY for the first nine weeks!  

Thank you!
