We had a fun time at recess playing on the monkey bars. Andrew enjoyed going to the computer lab and used markers to decorate around our name tag. He also talked about his good day in computer lab. Karson and Kaylee traded silly bandz at recess and had fun doing it. Tomorrow starts September so we had to make new calender markers. We chose to make an apple, a football, and an apple tree for our repeating patteron on our calender. During lunch some of us ate fruit, bread, beef tips, and rice.

Today was a good day because we went to ready bodies, ate lunch, and played on the playground. At recess some of us played on the monkey bars carefully. For lunch some of us ate soft tacos, beans, corn, cornbread, and a banana. After lunch we did math problem solving then we went to math centers. During math centers some of us played math blasters on the computer.
We have nearly completed our first week of school and it has been very busy. Our schedule has consisted of learning procedures, expectations, and our schedule. In addition to that we have also reviewed some key concepts, such as, vowels, patterns, and sentence structure. The slideshow below will feature photos of each student and some of our class time working. I hope everyone is enjoying their first week of school and look forward to a fantastic year!

The first thing we did today is Kayleigh’s birthday book. Her birthday is on July the 14th but since we are not going to be here then we are making her book now. Then we did centers and the pink groop got the paw print because they were very quiet and all of them completed their work. After centers the class did bathroom and water and went to recess. It was a sunny day and it was real hot outside. Then we went to lunch and ate delicious tacos, corn, rice, beans, and fruit. We are studying about inventors so we read about the Wright Brothers last week and today about how Amelia Earhart had courage and was brave to fly. We are sad to not know what happened to her. PE was fun because we had to run around and around and grab people’s flags off their waste.
Payton and Brian wrote today’s blog and the class revised and edited it.
Note in my folder.
This morning was our last CHAMPS assembly. Mrs. Hoyt’s class talked to us about courage. Jada received an award for reading and Payton received an award for writing. Brian received a medium sized R2W shirt. He thinks it looks good on him! First we did centers and the green group got the paw print. After centers we did our spelling test. Right after spelling test we went outside for recess. Gracie thinks today was a hot day at recess! When we got back from recess we went to lunch. When we got back we read Ally Cat Takes Over First Grade. It was our last champtr in the book. After that we did intientpit reading. Then we went to P.E and played free play. Khloe says, “Today was a very great day!”
Today we went to reading cnters. Gracie liked making shapes by the computers. During centers we worked on problem solving, identifying nouns, elaborating our writing, and listening to fluent readers read stories on the iPods. After reading centers we worked on our new spelling word, very. We brainstormed more words with that rhymed with very and played a guessing game with them. Mrs. Ray gave us hints then we tried to figure out what the word was and write it on our dry erase boards. During music today we took our own CD’s and lyrics and listened to each others’ favorite songs. After music we had our last character education lesson with Mrs. Maines. We reviewed all the character traits a CHAMP has and listed what we could remember about them. Then we went into math and worked on identifying tens and ones and making numbers with them.
Today’s blog was started by Grace and Gracie and finished by Mrs. Ray.
Bring CD of favorite song tomorrow for music.
We started our morning off with reading centers. During centers we had to take a time out and go take our class picture. We all smiled big and posed for a funny photo. After our photo we finished our reading centers then we worked on new sight words, know and words. Spelling test is on Friday. Next, we worked on identifying main idea in some paragraphs we read. Then we went to recess where it was HOT!!! After lunch we came back to the room and read Aly Cat. Aly Cat got into BIG trouble today and had to sit on the bench at recess and take a time out. When PE was over we read a book about Benjamin Franklin and all the things he invented. Then we created our own invention that we will be writing about this week. The last thing we did today was working on identifying tens and ones. We are still very busy in the last couple of weeks of school. Continue to read and check folders nightly. End of the year party is scheduled for June 1st from 9:00-10:00.
