Wow! That first week of 1st grade went by so quickly! This week, we discussed our hopes and dreams for 1st grade. There were so many different goals that the children set for themselves. These included learning how to read and write more words, learning how to do harder math and becoming a great illustrator! I am so proud of them for setting their goals high! I know they can do it!
This week, we also talked about how we, as a class, can help to make eveyone's dreams come true. We decided on 4 classroom rules:
1. Be safe.
2. Be kind.
3. Share with friends.
4. Do your best!
This year, we have a new technology AMPT class. Our technology teacher, Ms. K worked with our students this week to see what they wanted to learn. They also talked about the different parts of computers such as the monitor, keyboard and mouse. The children were very excited both times we met with her!
Our AMPT schedule for the first 6 weeks is:
Monday: Physical Education w/Coach Marbry
Tuesday: Technology w/Ms. Karlstad
Wednesday: Art w/Ms. Seiklay
Thursday: Physical Education w/Coach Marbry
Friday: Technology w/Ms. Karlstad
On the days that we have physical education, please remember to bring a change of gym shoes for the children. They must wear their uniform shoes before and after gym. Thanks!
We will begin having music during the second 6 week AMPT rotation. Our new music teacher is Ms. Ritter. We are very excited to meet her. You can follow her blog at www.ellenthompsonmusic.blogspot.com
Have a great weekend!
