It's so great to be back with the kiddos! I hope that you all enjoyed the time that you had with your kids. They all enjoyed hearing what each other was up to during fall break. There was definitely a lot of chatter going on yesterday because they were all so excited to see each other!
This week we started Reader's Workshop and Writer's Workshop. Reader's Workshop is at time when we will focus on becoming better readers! Students will learn a new reading skill and then go off on their own with their book boxes and use that new skill while reading their books. Writer's Workshop is a time when they will learn how to be better writer's! We will learn something together about writing and then they will go practice it while writing on their own. They have been so excited about it the past 2 days and I can't wait to see how it helps them to grow as readers and writers. We also started Daily 5 this week. The Daily 5 centers that we are doing in our classroom are Read to Self, Listening Center, Technology, Word Work, and Writing. They go to 2 centers a day so that by the end of the week, they will have gone to every center twice. They have loved doing Reading a-z on the computers/iPads. They also are really enjoying the Listening Center where they listen to books being read to them on CD. I love how the kids just get very happy about anything new that we do in the classroom. I'm looking forward to this 2nd Quarter with your kids!
