Today we counted the 18th day of school. By now the students are well into our class routine. Here's a sample of our daily routine:
We begin our day with bellwork, calendar, and Writer's Workshop. After writing we typically have a snack break followed by Shared Reading. Most days the students go to PE after Shared Reading. After PE we have Guided Reading/Centers. Then we're off to lunch! After lunch they read silently for about ten minutes, and then I read aloud to them. Math follows this oral reading time. Most days we have an afternoon special (Music, Spanish, Science Room) then recess. The afternoon also has time for a Science or Social Studies lesson. We end our day reviewing what we did/learned.
This routine varies slightly from day to day, but it's still usually in a similar order. Your children have adapted very well, and I'm so proud of them! It's important that they have a routine in place for completing their homework. Please take a few minutes each day to ensure that they have the work completed and in their bag to return to school the following day. Please help them to remember to return their word cards on Thursday as well.
Thank you for your continued support. We are truly a "team"!
