Students enjoyed their first Physical Education Class with Ms. Wine on Thursday! Week 1 was fast and furious! Excited and sometimes, nervous children filled the classroom at The Elmore School again this week. We have 10 returning students and 7 new first graders. This week as all about getting to know each other, community building, and becoming familiar with routines and expectation. We did some journal writing, started to learn the basics structure of our math instruction including math menu (we will begin more targeted instruction over the next couple of weeks), be became familiar with our classroom library and learned how to find "just right" books for reading (more targeted reading instruction will begin in a couple of weeks). Finally, we made All About Me Posters about ourselves which we will have displayed for Open House on Thursday, September 22nd. We have several Monarch caterpillars and chrysalis we are observing, so we have been learning a lot about Monarch Butterflies. We should have some ready to release next week. This year I would like to put a spotlight on families of The Elmore School. Please send a small family photograph with your child on Tuesday. If if is easier to send a digital file to me to print you are welcome to do that as well. I would like to display these with our All About Me posters. Next week we will begin Digital Citizenship lessons, set goals for the year by identifying our Hopes and Dreams, and come up with our classroom / school rules. If you haven't already done so, please go to The Meal Train to sign up to bring Hot lunch on one of the Fridays this year. The first Friday (September 16th is still available!) Please email any lunch orders for next Tuesday - Friday. Options are:
