School is almost here!

School is almost here! I am ready and excited for the upcoming year.

I am able to get into the classroom on August 7th and will begin to set up the classroom then. I will be sure to post pictures of the classroom when it is completed.

I have rough drafts of the lesson plans for the first five weeks. They will be posted soon so check them out. The first several weeks students are getting use to routines and procedures.

Math
In math, the students are reviewing math concepts they learned in kindergarten. A few of these concepts include: one to one correspondence, counting on, sets, and counting by fives and tens.

Science and Social Studies
In science and social studies, the students will have units on respect, rules and citizens, goods and services, and categories/objects/weight.

Literacy
In literacy, we are setting up the daily five. The students have a balanced literacy approach where they Read to Self, Read to Someone, complete Word Work, and work on Writing. Also during this time, students will begin Guided Reading and work on individual goals.
