A few pictures from last week...

We have also started talking about weather in class. We worked together to make science posters to help us remember all of our weather vocabulary!

I am having so much fun getting to know all of your children this week! We have started practicing how we go to centers as well as how we work together at them. We have also been making class graphs and using them to find out information. So far we have done a How We Went Home graph and a How Long Is My Name graph.

We are also practicing the routines of a new classroom. We are working together as a class to earn Pioneer Pride Tallies. When we reach 100 we have a earned a class reward which we will vote on. So far we have earned 38! We earn them when everyone in the class is doing the right thing, we receive a compliment, or the whole class is just going above and beyond the expectation! I can't wait to see how many more tallies we will earn this week! 

If you did not receive a test email from me, please send me an email at ashley.britton@cobbk12.org and I will add you to our class email list. 

Supplies

In addition to the supplies on the supply list posted on the PTA web page, your child will need an additional journal for writing. You can find these at Target, Staples, and The School Box!

See you soon!

Happy Summer!

I'm glad I was your teacher
I've come to love you so.
I can't believe the end is here.
I hate to see you go.

You're such a star,
and I love you so dearly.
You light up my life,
and I mean that sincerely.

Remember all the fun we had
in all the things we did.
But most of all remember -
you're a very special kid.

I am so fortunate to have been your teacher. I can't

Love Always,

Our Class Ceiling Tile - "You Were Made to be Awesome"

We also ended our economics unit by spending the money we earned at the First Grade Village's shops. The kids loved the Sugar Shack, Salon, Movie Theater, Club Campbell, and Game Room.

After Economics Day, we hung out with the entire First Grade to sign year books and memory books.
