First Day of School

Today we got acquainted, familiarized ourselves with the classroom and wrote some funny, imaginative poetry. The students came up with all sorts of funny ideas for what they didn’t do this summer (swim in a barrel of sweet and sour pickles). We also looked at a map of the US and identified all the states, the Great Lakes, the oceans and the Mississippi River. Students will continue working on the map skills activity and the poetry writing and illustrating tomorrow. It’s a great class and I am so happy to have them as students this year.
