- Upon entering the classroom students worked on a class name word search and an All About Me poster.
- Next came Classroom rules- I began with teaching the WBT rules activating student's whole brain. They loved it!
- Then we picked up supplies and color coded our composition notebooks. Red=Reading, English=green, Blue=Social Studies, Purple= Math, Yellow=Science. With having 5 notebooks in your school bag all looking the same, color coding helps students locate the right notebook quickly.
- Next was the Teacher test. I gave students an 10 question test titled "How well do you know your teacher?" They chose their best answers and I followed the questions with the answers on a flip chart.
- We visited the computer lab and explored our class website and began typing practice.
- Lunch
- Wrote an "I Am " Poem which will become our first blog post next week on Kidblog.
- PE
- Completed our "I Am" poems.
- Dismissal
The day went by very quickly!
