Reminders:
Feb 28- Pillars of Care Assembly
No school next Monday!
Today the students began their day with a new morning message!
I have been using the morning message as a way to get students comfortable with reading aloud and finding mistakes in writing. Students have been responding very well to this each day and cannot wait to read it!
Below was the message from today:
We also honored pink shirt day today by tallying every time the students showed acts of kindness and caring throughout the day! I have to say, the students did an excellent job of this in the morning! We got over 12 different acts of kindness!
In math today we continued to work on double digit addition with regrouping. I am posting some questions as practice for those students and parents that would like to practice at home!
After math we went to gym to practice our skipping before heading off to snack.
Students were introduced to the second part of their Instead I project in which we started to write our calming strategy writing. We will continue this tomorrow!
After writing the students had some time to practice scenarios for showing kindness with their peers. We practiced how to show kindness and then made sponge flowers of kindness to post on our door!
After lunch the students did some mindfulness coloring while listening to music before silent reading. We had some difficulty focusing on the silent reading today and we will be trying again tomorrow!
We finished off our day with a class meeting to discuss some of the problems we have been having with our peers. We understand that we are a class but we are also a community that must coexist and work well together. Kids finished up with a handshake, high five or fist bump before heading off to music.
Hope everyone has a great day!
Thank you to all the students and teachers who wore pink shirts today!
