A great Monday!




K shares his story "Going to Korea"
Today, students had the chance to have a small writing celebration, to honor their very first published piece of writing. We did the first one small so students had the opportunity to read to another student and read in front of the class. They then allowed students to comment on what they liked, and also what they could add to make their writing even better for their next published piece.
Today we also had the chance to meet a new student who has joined our class. It was so great to see the kids welcome him and make him feel at home. They worked on developing their own strategies and how to make groups of five. They started by looking at what a group of five really means and then worked on their own at their tables to come up with different strategies to represent their thinking about what a group of five really is.
