Just a Bloggin'

We have been working on so many things in class. Our next big thing is the Alabama Direct Assessment of Writing on February 22. We are writing everyday in class. We are also working on division of decimals and converting fractions to decimals. We are also reviewing several reading skills such as author's purpose, cause and effect, drawing conclusions, and fact and opinion. Keep up the good work at home. We're in the home stretch now! We're halfway there!

AMSTI Videos

Keep in mind while viewing these videos that we are just beginning to become independent thinkers. I will continue to post, so you can watch our progress.

Number Puzzles and Multiple Towers

We have begun AMSTI math! The children are learning to become problem-solvers and thinkers. I am posting several pictures from Tuesday's math lesson. I will also be posting a few videos! I hope you enjoy watching your children as they begin to explore and fall in love with math!

Day One

We had a wonderful day today! Our class is full of interesting personalities! I learned a few things about my students today. Ryan S. loves history, so I am going to do my best to load him up with as much of it as possible. I have quite a few little chatter boxes, but they were so excited to be in class today! Anglia loves to draw, and I could tell her dad is involved in fire and rescue because she drew the LifeSaver helicopter. We started the year off with a bang! We have so much ahead of us! We will begin AMSTI math tomorrow. I can't wait to see the results! I also can't wait to see how much our little family is going to grow this year.

SCHOOL STARTS TOMORROW!!!!!!

I am so excited!!!! Tomorrow begins a new exciting school year! A fresh batch of eager learners will walk through my classroom door in the morning!!! I can't wait!!!
