Happy spelling! :)

We have had an awesome week! We earned our 100th Pride Tally and will be celebrating on Friday! Way to go Ms. Britton's class. :)

We also have continued to work on weather this week, while also introducing the water cycle. We even made our very own miniature water cycles in the classroom. We will watch to see the water evaporate!

One of our class animals will start coming home with students this weekend. Don't worry, its a stuffed animal! His name is Chipper and he comes with a journal for students to fill out about their weekend with him. We will keep this as a class book in our library! Have fun with him!

Enjoy your three day weekend! I will see the students back on Tuesday, September 6th.

Building to 120!

We had a surprise show up on Tuesday...

We opened it today and found new centers and hard hats! We 'built' numbers to 120 this morning. We also 'built' our very own rain gauges to use at home!

We passed Mrs. Airman's Media Center test and are officially good to check out books!

Students will be bringing home their media center books today. We will keep them for a couple of days until we are able to go back to the Media Center and check in as a class. Once we have done this, students will be free to check out when they are done with their book.

Here are some pictures of us checking out the library!

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!
