Last night was our Open House Night at
Millers Creek. I met 18 of my 21
kids and their families. Fourth
graders are awesome at Open House.
I guess I am used to knowing that little seven year olds will stare
blankly at you and hold on to their parent/guardian. Nine-year-olds, however, expel information about what they
hope to learn, their summer adventures and how cool their new classroom looks.
I had an awesome time talking to parents, guardians, and my new not-so-little
ones.
Here are some pictures of my finished
room. I have my fourth grade team,
boyfriend, and roommate to thank for getting this all set up in no time!
This is a Twitter Board I created
outside my door. I think I will
use this for kids to respond to learning.
I’m going to teach them about #hashtags and use those for the main ideas/key
details/ subjects.
This is a duct tape quilt I created. I put a 2-D iPad in each student’s bag. During the first week of school I’m
going to have them create “apps” that describe them and we will present to the
class!
I’m excited about spending this weekend
free from schoolwork. I’ll be relaxing and taking it easy.
Happy Weekend!
