Wow! The students had an unbelievable day. We were quite productive! After our morning routine, we reviewed our shapes and completed a shape sorting activity. As part of our math routine, we also conducted a survey. The question for today's survey was, "Is your favorite flavor of ice cream strawberry?" We tallied our yes and no votes and counted our tallies to answer our question. Five students said strawberry was their favorite flavor of ice cream, and sixteen said no. We read another story in the Chester Raccoon series titled Chester Raccoon and the Big Bad Bully, which is a story that encourages children to play together nicely and to accept each other's differences. The students also worked on making a book about Chester Raccoon to keep in their own individual classroom book bins. Each child will keep a bin of books that we will add to as the year progresses. The goal is for children to always have a collection of books to look through and/or read that not only matches their reading abilities but also matches their interests. As the year progresses, I'll be working with the students to help them add some "just right" books to their book bins. As always, if you have any questions please let me know!
