It was wonderful meeting and visiting so many of you last night at Back to School Night! For those who were unable to join us, or for quick reference anytime of the year, here are the full details as handed out. Please let me know if you have any questions!
Please note the tabs at the top of the page. All of the essential information for the class (essentially the handouts from Back to School Night) can be found here for quick reference any time of year.
Week 1 Highlights
This week we spent some time getting to know each other and the four students who are new to Cascade Heights. We had a class discussion about our Flexible Seating, including establishing guidelines for what this looks like at different times of the day.
Daily 5 has been introduced with our first activity, Read to Self. We are working on building our reading stamina and independence.
We began learning about the human brain and Growth Mindset. We watched the first 2 Class Dojo "Big Ideas" videos introducing Growth Mindset.
Next week we will begin learning Italic Cursive and reviewing our Riggs Phonograms. It will take us about 3 weeks to build a solid foundation for the rest of the year before we are ready to begin Riggs words and regular spelling tests. I will keep you updated as we get closer to this transition!
Again, thank you for coming last night, and have a wonderful weekend!
Mrs. G
