Off to a Running Start

Our first four days have flown by!
We have jumped right into learning this week- both the classroom routine and academics. This year we are going to be working on discussing our learning targets (LT) and behavioral goals (BG) each day so that students know what we are working on learning and how they can accomplish the targets/ goals. This week we have started just with a behavioral goal " I can be respectful and use a quiet voice in the classroom". Each morning we discuss the goal, what it looks like when we are working toward the goal, have multiple reminders of the goal throughout the day, and then debrief about how we did achieving the goal at the end of the day. We will be doing a similar process with the learning targets, but they will be for a specific learning goal. I will be posting the writing, literacy and math learning targets that we are working on. Some of the targets and goals will take a day to achieve, while others may take much longer. We also had our first community meeting with all of the kindergarten students. We learned a song about the 3 be rules, listened to a story, and colored a bee coloring page. Next month our class will be presenting something at our community meeting. I will let you know what we are doing and when we will be doing it as soon as I know.
