Week 3 Indoor recess, indoor recess, and oh yeah, indoor recess

 Since it was too hot to go out for recess all week, we got pretty creative with our indoor recess activities! And we found little breaks to go out early in the day...but we are definitely ready to get back to our playground!!

We did go outside for our word work one day and had some run around time!

Trying to be active any way we can, this was us learning how to study our words while throwing pillows!

Always love when I can find a song to help us learn math...some of us got very into it: )

Amelia wrote to Dr. Trachsel trying to persuade her to give us a day off because of how hot it is (kind of amazed that my casual mention of writing persuasive letters later this year inspired such action lol)...Dr. Trachsel answered her back and said that she may not be able to offer us a day off, but she could give us some ice cream to stay cool! What a fun treat!









We took reading outside very early in the morning because we needed out of our room lol














Some pictures from balloon math facts last week!













So much creativity-LOVE IT!









































We got so many compliments this week for walking quietly in the hall, being good at Mass, we even had another teacher bring her class to see how well behaved we were during indoor recess because she thought we were being good examples!!! Our jar of compliment pom poms is so close to being full that we should be earning our big reward any day now...















Working on writing numbers in the hundreds!



FRESH AIR!



Illustrating our opinion papers!










OUR FIRST 2ND GRADE PAPERS!














Ready to recieve our backpack blessings at Mass, thanks for all the Mass Offerings!








Like seriously, our walking behavior has been awesome-one of my best ever!





























Look our fabulous sentences!!! Spacing, capitalization, punctuation, oh my!

What a wonderful first day! They were so incredibly polite, were amazing listeners, and already hardcore roasted me-I can tell it is going to be a fun group! They kindly obliged me by taking classroom first day photos even though they already took chalkboard sign photos at home:) Everyone was very excited when we finally made it to lunch...they were getting a little tired of going over procedures but they handled the boredom well!   Recess finally!!! Getting the run down on general school expectations from Mr. Veit... Learning how to use our morning tubs :) Playdough was a great way to start the day! All ready for church tomorrow! Walking feet, safe hands, eyes looking and ears listening-line up pros, ready to go! After all the boring procedure stuff, we have to have a brain break!

Week 10 New Games and Caramel Apples

 When the Math Lesson tells you to work on 1/2, 1/4, and 1/8 by cutting up apples and comparing tastes for a graph...you almost have to turn it into a Caramel Apple Party-especially if it is a fantastic, fall, fun Friday! After receiving several compliments on their good behavior the last few weeks, they earned their Extra Recess afternoon!! Enjoy their beautiful Mass singing. We learned an addition game this week called Making Ten-they have to lay cards on top of each other that will add up to 10. They were fantastic researchers as we began our large Habitat Project! They picked a habitat, researched its weather, landforms. plants, and animals and then will be using their research to create a small diorama in class. After working hard on a narrative writing project, we did a little puffy paint crafting to help illustrate our fabulous fall stories! More from extra recess.... Several friends earned their first AR prize-I love seeing how much they are beginning to love reading! Some ...
