We are continuing to make helpful choices to be bucket fillers!  This is our classroom during our writing block.  We are working on Narrative Writing.  Yesterday, we wrote about a small moment in time... a nightmare we once had.  Calm music was playing in the background and the kids were uber focused.  I had to capture it with a photo.

Number Bonds... perfect for reinforcing: number sense, basic fact fluency, and one-to-one correspondence.

“LIFE IS GOOD”- SIMPLICITY SUPERPOWER &

GLOBAL DAY OF DESIGN-MAY 2ND

The students had a blast celebrating Global Day of Design on May 2nd! For this day, the students had a chance to put their creative minds to the test and design and create away! In May, we launched our newest “Life is Good” Superpower of the month- Simplicity. Simplicity is something that sounds so natural and easy to understand, but it can be very difficult to achieve! By having the month of May dedicated to the superpower of simplicity, we are being very mindful of the ways that we can show what simple playing, learning, growing and creating is all about in first grade.

To launch the month of simplicity, all first graders had the opportunity to participate in a “Paper Bag Challenge”! This challenge included only 3 directions: 1. The goal is to make a simple kite of your very own design. 2. You must use the paper bag in some way. 3. You muse use 3 streamers and a piece of yarn. Anything else the students wanted to add to their design was up to them! 

Our Super Power this month is FUN!

The kids are coloring our bulletin board!
