Welcome Back
I can't believe that we are halfway through first grade! YIKES from a teacher's standpoint and that of a parent of a first grader! I can NOT believe how fast this year is going. These little people have grown so much physically and academically!
As we start the new year and the second half of first grade, the expectations for independence, respect, academics, and behavior all increase.
We have worked hard with respect. Every morning we shakes hands and greet each other. Students have learned to look me in the eye, shake my hand, and say good morning. We have even learned to ask, "how are you" and how to carry on a conversation.
Now we are moving on the Ron Clark's Rule 5 and Rule 7. Click on the Essential 55 tab at the top to read about these two rules.
We will continue to focus on respect as well.
