We had a fantastic first week back to school! We have spent the past three days doing team building activities and getting to know our new friends Griffin and Mira. We created our Hopes and Dreams for second grade and made self portraits. Today Jordan and Sam's Moms came in and worked with us in the gardens. A big thank you to them for giving us that opportunity today. We also spent some time looking at Tia's Sailing Blog and posted a comment to her. I am shocked by how much everyone grew over the summer! It has been so nice to settle in with the same group of students for a second year.
Next week we will start to ease into our regular schedule. Firefly has the Red Clover books for the month of September so we will spend September reading them and using them to launch our Readers and Writers Workshops. The new titles for this year can be found on Shelfari on this blog. This year's books are terrific!
A huge thank you to everyone for sending in school supplies. We should have plenty of tissues and pencils to get through the new school year.
