Happy Friday!

Don't forget to look through the other posts from the week. :) 

We had a great week together!

This morning on the playground, Mr. Hedges came to fix a few things on the playground.  The friends were excited to help him! 

Thank you Mr. Hedges! 

Working in the outdoor classroom 

"Look at my muscles!" 

During small group time the friends continued to practice and explore counting and number recognition. 

During free choice time some friends wanted to create a game.  I asked them how we were going to keep everyone safe in the game.  They began to say the rules, and I suggested that we write them down so that we don't forget them.  Once we wrote the rules, we posted them in the classroom to refer back to them as we play the game.  

The friends are reading the books that we made for our class.  They are helping each other point to the words, track from left to right, and use the predictable text to gain confidence in their skills.  These are all important pre-reading skills! 

"I am the cooker.  What do you want to eat?" 

We have created a classroom community.  As I was working with the friends, I noticed two friends enjoying a book together.  We have created a classroom community that loves each other!
