The First Day

We made it! Another first day in the books, and all of the munchkins did so well.  I am a very proud teacher!

Today, we learned about routines: making lunch choices, putting away our belongings, and how/when to listen to the teacher.

We took a tour of the school, went to music class, and played on the playground (some people even chose to take their stuffies with them!!)

We learned how to take care of our toys, and how to rotate through centers.

Here is our first Anchor Chart to guide our practice-- pictures to come tomorrow!  Look at how well we played :) 

After lunch, we had some quiet time.  Some chose to read books, others wanted to relax :).  For now, that's ok!  This time will slowly transition into "read to self" literacy block.

We even played a math game-- we had to find a friend with the same length of paper as our own.  We learned to "touch the ends" to compare!

We ended the day with indoor recess.  The class was tired, so I popped in a short LeapFrog video-- the Letter Factory! You can find it on Netflix!
