Math Menu (Workshop)

Today was our first day of Math Menu and it was a success! After a brief explanation of how it works each small group took off with their different activities and were engaged! Here is what our anchor chart looks like!

The anchor chart is up on the whiteboard so everyone can see. Then each small group (no more than three students) gets a Math Workshop Map. They take these maps with them to each station. The blue star is always me at my horseshoe table (it actually required me to clean it off SCARY!). The yellow hexagon, green triangle and orange square are always Mrs. Bahr working on PNOA skills (counting to 50, counting backwards from 17, one-to-one correspondence etc.). The red trapezoid, black rectangle and purple circle are different activities each small group gets to explore independently.

So far it has been working seamlessly! (Only one day, but I am an optimist!) The true test will be how it goes tomorrow (and the rest of the year :-D)!

I definitely have the best view in the house! I always LOVE looking up and seeing them working so hard! Truly an amazing class!

Hope you had a great Monday! I know we did!

Love,

Miss Brehm

Day TWO!

Day two is truly wonderful! We have so much fun together! Today we started working on our first classroom book and WOW it's going to be AMAZING! So many beautiful illustrators and creative thinkers in this class. Also today we completed our first of many Math and Writing rotations. It's been a busy busy busy day! Now to the fun stuff. It's always said that pictures speak much louder than words and I agree 100%. So here are the pictures from our magnificent day TWO! Right after lunch we went outside to explore our school garden with Nurse Amy! We picked marigold seeds which we are going to plant in our classroom! Check out all the fun we had! It was a busy day indeed, but so much fun! I can't wait for tomorrow! Love, Miss Brehm

We're Back!

Welcome back!! We are jumping right back in! (We only have 35 days of school left!) CRAZY! This morning we practiced our whole school morning meeting! The whole class is really excited for tomorrow! If you are able to join us tomorrow. Please meet us in the cafeteria at 7:45 AM. If you are not able to join us no worries Mr. Bouchard will film the morning meeting and I will post it to our blog! We are really really excited! At lunch we celebrated in our classroom due to the downpour of rain! We had fun pushing the tables together and eating in the classroom! A fun treat to celebrate our kindness and respectfulness! So happy to be back and can't believe we have only 35 days left! I wish you well! Love, Miss Brehm

In honor of my momma, Katrina Brehm, I am running a marathon. Crazy, I know. I got it from her. In Mom’s memory, my goal is to raise enough money to send a child to @camptakumta ! Please take a moment to check out the link in my bio and if you’re able to, give any amount. Thank you ☀️
