First Grade Take Two.....Week Two That Is!
This week we got our book boxes. We use these during quiet reading time. 

We also got to read with our Fourth grade buddies!














One of our math centers this week was to make pattern trains.

At another center we had to roll and count tallies.

We played an ordering numbers game on the smart board.

We played some math fact games on the laptops.

We had to put together some tricky 120 chart puzzles.

We also learned what it means to be a Reading Expert!


We had our first week of spelling! Keep up the practicing each night at home!

We got a special treat for a birthday on Friday! It's actually cupcakes!

We wrote in our journals for the first time.

FUN FRIDAY!

~*Our First Week!*~
We had a fun first week getting to know each other! Here are a few of the things we got to do!
After lunch we have Quiet Reading Time.

It's a good way to relax. Especially since many of us were asking when rest time was.......

Some of us earned brain bucks for reading so quietly!

We made a fun book about ourselves!

Every morning we work in our Everyday Learning books.


We played a fun word family game.

We had to use our pencil and a paper clip as our spinner.

We illustrated a poem about apples and highlighted the sight words.

Then we got to have FUN FRIDAY!!

Lincoln logs were pretty popular.

Some of us chose to save our money and went to the library.

The library is always FREE!



What a fun group of kiddos!

We are so lucky here at W-K to have a supportive PTA! 
They paid for our recent field trip to the Onalaska YMCA!
It was SO much fun!

We started out our day playing soccer!





Then we went inside and did some strength training.
Wall sits are hard!


Superman!


Wheelbarrow.


Crab crawl!


Our favorite was Zumba!





Our last station was kickball!



What a cool bunch of kids!

We were hungry by the time we were done!

...and CHILLY!






What fun day, with a FUN group of kiddos!
Thanks PTA!
