Off to a Great Start!

I cannot brag on these kiddos enough! I am just so proud of them. Every morning, since the 2nd day of school, every student has been given some sort of writing task. I cannot believe the progress, ALREADY, that has been made on their writing skills.
On this morning, I gave this group (Eliana, Jeremy, Draylan, and Tony) the task of completing their vocabulary journals WITHOUT MY HELP! In other words, they had to reference the vocabulary wall, find the correct picture/ word to match the picture in their vocabulary book, determine how to spell the word, and write it in the appropriate place in their vocabulary book. That's a tough task. However, they were ready to go!

I gave them the yard stick so that, once they found the appropriate word on the vocabulary wall, they could point it out for their friends! They all helped each other and did a great job working together.

Working hard!
This group (Tanayry, D'Andre, Enoch, and Santoes) worked with Ms. Malcom and Mrs. Stowe on labeling the pictures in their vocabulary journals. They worked so hard and did a great job!
D'Andre now gets straight to work when he sits at his desk. We are so proud of him!
Enoch has been working hard too!
Santoes looks tired. Ha! Ha!
We are so proud of all of our precious students! Their hard work is paying off! Way to go!
