Yesterday was so hectic that I did not get to show off the work that we did. We worked a lot on classroom rules and modeled the least and most desirable behaviours. We also began talking about the reading process and the parts of a book.
Today, was much more fun :-)
We started the day (and will commence every day) in our gathering place. Here, we discuss the calendar, place value, coin, and much more.

Morning Calendar |
We talked extensively about reading and the three ways to read a book. We created a poster, too.

We continued our day with the fairy tale of The Frog Prince and graphed if we would kiss a frog. Would you?

Dex helped to explain stamina and how to build it while we are reading, writing, or becoming a super hero.
Then Dakota retold Dex: The Heart of a Hero.
