1st Week Of School...It's Going To Be A Great Year!

We survived the first week of school! I was a little worried. We have never started school with a full five day week! The kids did great! They worked hard all the way to the last bell on Friday!! I just know it's going to be a great year!

I took a few pictures of their life at school this week. I know it's hard to send them off to school and wonder what they are doing all day. I hope you enjoy these as much as I do!

Yes! Your kids do like to read...no matter what they tell you at home! :) Here they are...enjoying some SSR (Sustained Silent Reading) time.

They created their time capsules. A couple of the tasks for the time capsules were to trace hands and feet. They cut these out and put them in their capsules. We will open them in the spring and see how much we've grown!How tall am I?Sometimes, they get to work around the room with their buddies!
Sometimes, I get to take a little break and the kids do the teaching!
We have started science. This unit is called "The Human Body". In this activity, they had to predict how many bones were in different parts of the body and then they were able to look at pictures of a skeleton. They counted to see how close they were. They loved doing this!
Can you believe I get to spend my days doing this? I'm so lucky!
