Dragon Store
I got so many awesome school spirit items at the dragon store today! They only have it once a month, I would love it if they had it once a week. My last host school had the bookstore open every day. I guess it makes the dragon store more special. The clip on the lanyard is not kind to my ID, but I am glad that it has a safety snap on the back.
Birthdays
I love that the class sings "Happy Birthday Cha Cha Cha" for birthdays. It is so much fun! The teacher also sits next to that student during circle time.
Personality
One of my students really likes to know what is coming up. We have been learning about how some students do not like surprises, they need to know what to expect.
Math Goals
I like that my class has a long term goal. If they master area and perimeter, they get to do the zoo project.
Reading Mini-lesson Tips
They have assigned spots/partners. The teacher uses "magic tape" when she makes a mistake on an anchor chart, it acts as white out. I wrote down the names of students who talked to each other when they were not supposed to. I need to be sure that they do not sit near each other. During part of the lesson, my teacher wanted to make sure that students were listening to what their partners said, so after the turn and talk, she asked each student what his or her partner had said.
Reading Group
I watched the small group section of the reading workshop, I wrote down some nice tips for when I get to lead a few groups.
