New Year - New Class

We are three weeks into our year now.  The kids are starting to realize the structure and procedures of our day.  It is always easier when that happens.  It is hard to believe that midterm progress reports go home Friday.  We are still hammering out the beginnings of the Daily 5, Guided Math, and Personal Narratives with Lucy Caulkins.
I love my sweet second graders.  I alway do fall in love with them and then have to let them go on and fall in love with their third grade teachers the next year.  Here the kids are learning to play a math game so they can play it successfully when we go to math rotations.
