The first bell rings at our school at 8:30 am each day. This is when students can enter the building and come to the classroom to get ready for the day. Since the second bell doesn't ring until 8:40 am when school starts, that gives us some time each morning to come in and read some good books. Lately I have been sitting on the floor with the crew during this 10 minute time instead of greeting them out in the hallway. I am enjoying this time with the crew so much. Last Thursday, I decided to get out some blocks and build with the crew instead of just chatting and reading books. The crew loved this idea so we have decided to have one morning each week be a building day while saving the other days for reading - which we also love.
Home Learning ~ Read a good book or two or try an online book. Check out a Bedtime Math story or play a math game.
