1st Grade is Busy!

We have been keeping so busy this week!!  We've really gotten into our reading and writing workshops with LOTS of practice!  Ask us and we can tell you how we are working to become stronger readers and writers!

We also started our book selections this week, tried out the iPads, had a visitor, and started book buddies!!  We shared our favorite Pete the Cat book with our 3rd grade buddy and then had POPSICLES! YUM! We are so excited for book buddies all year!

Check out some of our pictures and sing along with our fluency song of the week:

Back to School!

Whew! We made it through our first week in first grade!! It was so great! We just know this will be an AWESOME year!

We had fun meeting our new classmates and reviewing what we learned in kindergarten!






We kicked off our fluency songs this week with the Beach Boys Be True to Your School.

Flexing our writing muscles in writing workshop! 


We made Pete's jacket with the 4 groovy buttons... yum!
Right before this picture Rowan said, "This is the best day ever!"








Extra recess fun :)
