Hello Families!<\/p>\n

I have made this class blog to share information and resources. Please visit this page for updates on what we are doing and for any news about our class or the school. I am always open to connect with families whether it's to ask a question or share a story. Please feel free to email me at any time or speak to me after school outside the classroom door. Another method would be through your child's planner or if you prefer a phone call, we can arrange a time to speak \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

I have attached the welcome letter below that was sent home with students last week for your reference.<\/p>\n

Classroom Routines<\/strong><\/p>\n

In our class these are some of the routines that we have to ensure students have the opportunity to communicate, create and develop important skills.<\/p>\n

Sharing Circle<\/strong><\/p>\n

Every morning in our class we all sit in a circle and allow the students to share how they are feeling and what is on their mind. This is an important routine because it helps to build community, empathy, speaking and active listening skills. When students are heard we can learn a great deal from them as well as learn more about how we can make today a great one. I would highly recommend taking some time out the day and just talking to your child. During these uncertain times we could all use a moment to be grounded and express whatever emotions we may be feeling.<\/p>\n

Daily 5 Literacy Stations\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is important to develop reading and writing skills by using them everyday, please consider including two or three of these activities in your daily routines. Students will be familiar with most of these activities because they were incorporated into our class routines. Each stations lasts for about 15 minutes to give students an opportunity to practice different skills.<\/p>\n
