We
start our day with whole group reading time. During this time we read
lots and lots of stories and work on reading, written expression and
spelling
skills.
|
|
Then student's work in small groups. We practice written
expression
and spelling skills while writing stories of our own or rewriting
stories
we have already read.
|
|
After small group writing, it's time for centers. The
students do all center
activities on their own. The centers are a variety of hands on
activities.
|
|
|
During centers, Mrs. Glandt and Mrs. Haynes call students
for
guided reading.
Guided reading allows the students to read and discuss stories are
at their current reading level.
|
|
Next it's lunch and then it's time for Math. The students
enjoy a
variety of hand on activities
as well as Math worksheets. |
After listening to Mrs. Glandt read a favorite story, the
students write in their journal. Sometimes they
write a response to the story and sometimes it's free choice.
|
|
|
Recess is next. All students enjoy the chance to have fun on
the playground. We are lucky to have such great playground equipment.
|
Science
and Social Studies cover a variety of topics centered on giving the
students the chance to explore.
The students will often work in pairs or
small
groups to complete their tasks.
