Today was a great day! We started out with our morning meeting and we were able to do coseeki for our activity. Then we were off to Tiger Time to do some math. Everyone is LOVING Tiger Time. When we came back we worked on the break-aparts of 9 and the switched partners as well. This is a tricky concept but we are getting the hang of it. We also had a lockdown drill this morning. Everyone was so quiet I hardly knew we had 20 first graders in here!
This afternoon we came back and worked hard on our HF words and the spelling sound. Then we introduced choice for Daily 5. The three areas of Daily 5 we have introduced so far are Read to Self, Work on Writing, and Read to Someone. Up until today, we have done each one as a whole group. Today, everyone was able to choose what he/she wanted to do. It is so fun to see each child having a choice in their learning and to look around the room and see workers doing so many different things. Have a great night!
