First Week Back to School

This has been a busy week of learning new routines, sorting school supplies, learning how to use a planner, learning to be brave and to not be afraid to make mistakes and learning about patterns.  The students have also been learning how to use the SmartBoard.

Yesterday and today we learned about patterns.  We learned the words pattern core and repeat and then we practised creating our core and repeating it.  Here are some samples of our creative patterns.

We also sorted our school supplies and hung up our brand new book bags. Some of us have even put books in our new bags. We are excited to read the books and use our book bags.  Today we learned that there are three ways to read a book. We can read the pictures, read the words, and retell the story.  We read "No David" by David Shannon using the three ways of reading.

Next week we will even have more fun with learning!
