At the beginning of the year we spend a lot of time learning about our classmates. One activity we did last week helped us learn how kind words spread to help fill other peoples "buckets". We read the book How Full Is Your Bucket and then practiced saying kind things to our classmates. To show how those kind words spread and stick we dipped into our bucket (that was full of glitter) and saw how it stuck to our hand and our classmates hands.
This week we spent a lot of time building our reading stamina. This is such an important skill because we will have a lot of independent reading time this year and we are already almost half way to our goal of reading for 20 minutes!

In math we spent time reviewing and building our number sense by subitizing! With this we are also building our math vocabulary and talking through how we see and make numbers, This will build our addition and subtraction skills as well.
We all read a lot of books this week! What were some of your students favorite books they read at home or at school?
