The Kissing Hand

We read The Kissing Hand this week. I tear up every year when I read I read this. 

After we read, we talked about how we felt on the first day of school and graphed our results. 

Gingerbread Man

We read the Gingerbread Man is Loose in School and guess what....he left us a note in the back of our book for us to follow him. We went to the media center, art room, computer lab, music room, restroom, gym, lunchroom, office, bus pick up, car rider area, and the playground and we never caught up with him!  When we came back to the room, the had left a gingerbread cookie at each of our seats. 

We had a great time finding all the different places in our school. 

When we are our cookie we took 1 bite and then graphed what we are first then we finished the cookie. 

Our First Day!

We had an amazing day.  It went by so fast!!!  We had so much fun!

We read The Gingerbread Man and when we finished the gingerbread man had left us a message!!

We chased him all over school.  We searched the gym, art room, music room, computer lab, office, lunchroom, library, bus line, car line, and playground. We finally chased him back to our room where he left us gingerbread cookies and disappeared.  We were sad we never caught him but so excited that he left us a snack. 

We took one bite of our gingerbread and the ripped a paper gingerbread man to match our first bite.  (Did we eat the head, leg, or arm first?). Then we graphed our data and made observations about the information on our graph. 

Next we played Who Took The Cookies From The Cookie Jar? 

We used the Smart Board random name generator to play.  After each child's name was called they would come up and select the next student. 

Sorry about the dark picture. We had to have the lights off to see 😊

What are our rules???

We read David Goes to School and talked about all the good and bad choices David made.  Then we made a Do and Don't list.  

We will continue to work on rules and play Who Took The Cookies From The Cookie Jar? To learn everyone's names.  

This is going to be a great week!
