We had a very great start to the school year. Below you will see some photo evidence. We learned our CPR/Homeroom Groups.
We all learned CARES and practice some CPR greet and game.
Mr. Meadows side had a circle talk with a name game and some summer activity share. Ms. Lamb's side finished our name tags both table-top and wearing (see Hunter's great example and Beck's below.)
We had a lot of space learning and protocols to go over. We will keep that going all week and next. We have two homeroom/CPR groups, Awesome and Brilliant. We travel in those groups to core classes and Music, World Language and PE. Here is a link to the schedule which we will not be following completely for about three weeks. SCHEDULE
Tomorrow the Awesomes have PE and Friday the Brilliants have PE.
We started homework today. Hurray! The main objectives were start a homework folder - put in your assignment sheet (books haven't arrived yet, maybe by Monday) and book orders. Note - all other office paperwork is sent home by email to parents by other people. Check emails for this important information.
The only other homework was to write down some hopes and dreams for this year. This is on page one of our homework journals.
The biggest part for HOME part of homework, is to bring home the folder, share with parents, get a signature on the assignment sheet and bring it all back tomorrow (folder, assignment sheet and journal.)
We had a talk about snack. Kids all ate, so everyone wants a snack. Kids can purchase snack from the cafeteria. We ask that they do this before 8:00 so we don't have kids leaving during the day. Kids will eat snack during class - we will practice this. We ask that kids not have sugar during snack as much as possible. We won't be policing, but we may ask that some things be saved for lunch if they have something else to eat. We will continue to talk about this.
Homework:
LA - on the page one of your homework journal - What are your hopes and dreams for this school year?
(Note - we completed this in class. We wrote for 5 minutes. Students made lists or wrote in pros form)
