I've really been enjoying reading groups this week.
Having time with each student is high on my list and this week it happened!
We finished up our "My Plate" lessons with a lesson on "sometimes food" and a "sometimes snack." It was a version of trail mix. Cheerios, Cracklin Oat Bran, Shredded Wheat, chocolate chips, banana chips. It was a hit!
Next Friday is Earth Day, so we have been doing a little reading in preparation for that and today we did a quick art project.
And our BIG pizza party happened today. Our class earns "green" notes in the cafeteria for meeting expectations. And they did it (a long time ago--before spring break) and Mr. C. bought pizza for us today to celebrate their great behavior.
Two things that have evolved over the year:
1. A couple of kids know when the doors need to be held open and just do it. So wonderful that they see a need and solve it.
2. Another friend has noticed that I do not always remember to change the date on the board, so he makes sure he does that before the end of the day. Today he even accounted for a weekend and a no school day on Monday.
Hope you have a fantastic weekend and enjoy your Monday!!!
P.S. There may be some full backpacks today. I "helped" them clean out their lockers. :-)
