The day we have all be waiting for is here--the first day of the 2014-15 school year. I'd like to thank everyone that was able to come to Back to School Night last Thursday. It was great to meet so many parents! I would also like to express my thanks for all my helpers over the past 2 weeks. So many parents were willing to take on projects, not only in Room 5 but all around the school. It was truly amazing to see the power of volunteers in action!
Our main focus of the first week of school will be working on the day to day routines that are so important to establish. Time spent on routines early in the year make the rest of the year run very smoothly. Even though we will be working hard on our routines our academic work will begin as well. We will begin switching for reading starting on Tuesday. Our first writing assignment will also be started this week. We will also begin our first project of the year, which will focus around the Tribes Agreements of Mutal Respect, Attentive Listening, Appreciations, No Put-Downs, and the Right to Pass. It's going to be an awesome week!!
