Three Billy Goats Gruff

Nurse Amy came in this morning and performed her rendition of the Three Billy Goats Gruff.

We really enjoyed listening to her version of the story! In reading we are going to focus on all different ways to tell one story! Nurse Amy was our first introduction! She used a felt board with the characters of the story. Nurse Amy also sang the words instead of just reading the story. "Click clack, click clack, let me pass. I want to run in the green green grass".

A big thank you to everyone who came to Open House last night! It was so nice to see you! There are still dates available to volunteer for 4 Winds. One for October 24th, one for January 23rd and two for April 17th. All three are from 12:00-12:40 pm. Please email me if you can! Also please return/let me know your top three choices for parent/teacher conferences as soon as possible!

Thank you so much!

Love,

Miss Brehm

First Day Fun!

Today was a wonderful day! We had fun exploring our classroom, learning different expectations and just getting to know one another! We enjoyed our first special today LIBRARY! Mrs. Burroughs is so nice and we enjoyed our time together. As a class we read the book Shh We Have a Plan by Chris Haughton. It is a wonderful book that we will be creating our first classroom book about! In the whirl of the end of day I forgot to send home the first day letters with our schedule. I will make sure to get them home tomorrow in Thursday folders. I am so happy that we are all together! I can't wait to see what this year has in store for us! Love, Miss Brehm

Sunshine Chair

This is our Sunshine Chair! It is a very special place in our classroom where friends can go to relax, regroup, think and feel safe. In our classroom anyone can go and sit in the sunshine chair any time they want. Friends also may be invited to sit in the sunshine chair. While sitting in the chair friends are able to watch Zogika and calm their minds. It is not just for students! I myself have used the chair once or twice when I am feeling frustrated, sad or if I just need some space. I do this to model the expectations for how to use the sunshine chair, to identify feelings and to help friends self regulate. Also so friends know that it is not a time out chair or take a break chair. Feel free to stop by anytime and check out this amazing space in our classroom! Love, Miss Brehm
