We had a great week as we launched our first unit all about communities! We are looking forward to posting photos of the students as soon as all photo permission slips are turned in. For now, we would like to share with you one of our methods for reflecting on our learning. At the end of lessons, we will ask students to either move their clip or turn their card to show how they feel the assignment went. If students choose green, they think the assignment is easy and they can complete it independently. If students choose yellow, it means they need to slow down a bit or have some assistance for the assignment. If students choose red, it lets us know that they found the assignment difficult and we may need to reteach the concepts. This method allows students to reflect on their learning and gives a visual to see how our attitudes change the more we practice skills and concepts. The charts can be seen in the following pictures.

Thank you to everyone who wrote comments about their week! We always look forward to reading them!
