Classroom Pictures...

Our Class Rules!  Written and Created by Us!



This is our class Dragon Dollar chart for the children to place their individual Dragon Dollars.  The children have been doing a wonderful job earning Dragon Dollars!

This is our class CAFE board.   These are the CAFE strategies we have learned so far.  Ask your child to explain to you what each one means.

This is our Daily 5 Rotational Chart.  A big part of Daily 5 is the children having a say in what they are learning.  We will soon be doing two rounds of Daily 5 and the children will get to choose what they would like to do for each round.

This is our "Read to Self" chart. 
It explains what the children and teacher are doing during this time of "Daily 5".


This week we began "Work on Writing".  The children were so excited!  They especially like the part that they get free choice of what to write about.
This is our class job chart.  To build classroom community we will take turns sharing in the classroom responsibilities. 

Our "Big Banana" Star Student will begin next week with Caroline being our first Big Banana.  We will have a different member of our class family being the Big Banana each week.  The Big Banana will get to decorate this board and also be celebrated in a special way each day of his or her assigned week.
This board is used for the children to write compliments to their classmates for a job well done.  We are a family and always will support, encourage, and inspire one another!  :)    More pictures to come!!  :)  :)  :)
