First Full Day of School

My day started out different than I expected. I tried to cut off my thumb while using the big paper cutter to cut word wall words. Today we focused on community building and we learned how to behave properly on the bus(getting on and off) in the hallway and at lunch. The kids really enjoyed the bus and lunch parts because there were teachers pretending to be students and not doing what they should be doing and then students got to demonstrate proper procedure. Yesterday we focused on proper procedure for the assembly.

We only had 12 students show up today, not sure if it will stay that way or not. Also not sure what they will do if there isn't enough students. I did a read aloud of "Rainbow Fish" and we talked about what we can give people that isn't materialistic (compliments, high five, notes...) The kids did great.
