Week in Review
We had a great first two days back! Your students came back ready to rock and roll. :) 

This week, we focused on resolutions.  
We read this story and talked about how it's okay to not be perfect! We all learn (and can relax) when we know that everyone makes mistakes.


After the story, each student selected one word they wanted to focus on as their goal for the year.
We took time to choose the resolution, explain why we chose it, and even explain what steps we will take to meet our goal!
The final step was to share our resolutions. We spent a long time talking about how our friends can help us meet our goals by being our supporters.















Another goal we had for our short week was to remind our bodies of what we do during our Daily Five time. We practiced Read to Self, Work on Writing (where your kids had so much fun writing about their Winter Break!), and Word Work. We're always working to build our stamina back up so that we can become better readers and writers.
Of course, they did a MARVELOUS job.







Have a fabulous week!
