KinderMath 
We begin our math curriculum today. Please read the overview in this photo for detailed info as to the 'why' we use this kind of math. 

The first unit is Numbers 0-5
See the photo below to see lesson 1 overview. Some lessons include the targeted math skill literature as well. Today's lesson: Numbers 1, 2, 3



 Each day we will work with calendar activities on the SmartTV.
For now, our focus is learning the routine for it. Eventually, the children will be involved through the use of their 'laptop' binder pages that align with the calendar slides on the SmartTV.
Bus Safety 
Lesson: I stay seated when riding the bus.

The kids will have STEAM class with Mr. Brown from 1:10-1:40.
  
Again, our class will be split for PE & music. 
(Last names A-K will have music, L-Z have PE.)

Irish Pride
We continue to learn lots of way to show good character in school such as walking quietly in the hall, playground rules, and bathroom etiquette. Learning routines and procedures are a big part of their day. Young children thrive on predictability and repetition so taking it slow is the key to success!
Assume nothing, teach everything!
