What a great first week we have had!  We have been having fun getting to know each other and the classroom routines and expectations.  Thank you for your cooperation in getting all of the parent paperwork returned!

Here are some activities we did this week:

• Listened to Chrysanthemum and made name tags 
• Played games!  (The warm wind blows, four corners and two truths and a lie)
• Read The Colors of Us and painted self-portraits 
• Learned a lot about each other from our Artifact Museum
• Challenged ourselves with team building activities like spaghetti and marshmallows and card towers 
• Created top ten lists about ourselves 
• Began using our Chromebooks and discussed what being 1:1 means
• Discussed digital citizenship and our digital footprint

We have been using Digital Passport to learn about the components of digital citizenship and Edmodo as our online classroom.  Please check out the websites and ask your child about them!  

Upcoming dates:

Picture day- Friday, September 6th

Curriculum night (3-5)- Thursday, September 19th  

Have a great weekend and feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns!
