We started our first day together by reading ‘Our Class Is A Family’ and making matching friendship bracelets! Pink is for kindness, Blue is for fairness, Orange is for helpfulness, Green is for respect and Yellow is for caring. 🩷💙🧡💚💛

We love mini erasers for sorting and patterning!

“Leaf Man” is always a great book to share with students to inspire their creativity.

Spooky Skeletons! Students have been building skeletons and counting bones.

We are lucky to have these beautiful woods nearby for us to explore. A class walk in the forest was perfect for Take Me Outside Day. 🍂 🍁 🍃

Tomorrow is Picture Day at St. Paul!
