Back to School!

We had a terrific first day back to school!  It seems like every year our first day back becomes more and more impressive.

I will be sending notebooks home tomorrow.  Our buses arrived about 10 minutes early today, and I did not have a chance to write my messages in the books.  Everyone had a fantastic day.  We seemed to get back into our routine without any problems.

I can't wait to see everyone again in the morning :)

(Forgive the low-quality iPad pictures today... my camera battery was dead!)

Everyone followed directions quickly and easily today.  Here we are about to do a group activity with letter sounds and words on the big screen :)

Reading Time

A relaxed version of Reader's Workshop today.

Exploring with watercolor paints this afternoon.

Making up their own game during a break time.  It was fun to see our classroom friendships go right back to normal!

Relaxing with the iPad during a break time.

We will be beginning Specials(art, gym, technology, music) tomorrow with our general education classes.  Next week we will begin adding more general education classroom times as well.
