Our overarching theme this year will be
TRANSITIONS.
Throughout the year we'll be looking at our various topics through this lens with the following guiding questions:
What is transition?
How do things/people transition?
What causes transitions?
When are transitions necessary?
What are the effects of transitions?
What can you learn from transitions?
Is there anything that does not transition?
We've already made lots of transitions these first weeks of first grade!
Being in first grade
Making new friends
Having our own desks instead of cubbies
Using "linger finger" to read picture books
Lots of maps and puzzles
Daily 5 literacy with a box full of good fit books
Asking lots of questions
"All hands on deck!"
Reading chapter books
Harry Potter
Decorating a box to keep our treasures in
And of course, losing our front teeth!
We're eager and ready to learn about
the transitions in our world,
including how and why
we transition into fall.
